I Have... Who Has...? – Natural Selection | 4 Interactive Science Review Games – 100 Cards

Explore how organisms survive, reproduce, and change over generations with four engaging science review games!

Help students investigate the relationships between inherited traits, environmental conditions, and survival with I Have... Who Has...? – Natural Selection!

Designed to complement the Grade 8 Amplify Science Natural Selection unit, this printable resource includes 100 science question-and-answer cards organized into four numbered sets of 25 cards each.

Students explore natural selection, variation, populations, adaptive and non-adaptive traits, selection pressures, mutations, and inheritance.

What's Included?

• Set 1: Cards 1–25
• Set 2: Cards 26–50
• Set 3: Cards 51–75
• Set 4: Cards 76–100

Total: 100 cards across four sets.

The colorful natural-selection-themed fronts and coordinated question-and-answer sides are designed for double-sided printing.

What Makes This Resource Special?

• Reinforces natural selection vocabulary.
• Explores variation within populations.
• Reviews adaptive and non-adaptive traits.
• Strengthens understanding of selection pressures.
• Examines inheritance, genes, and mutations.
• Connects scientific concepts to the rough-skinned newt and garter snake investigation.
• Encourages evidence-based reasoning.
• Promotes active listening and cooperative learning.

Sample Science Questions Include:

• What is the process by which individuals with helpful traits survive and reproduce more? – Natural selection
• What is a specific characteristic of an organism? – Trait
• What is a group of the same kind of organism living in the same area? – Population
• What are differences between individuals of the same species? – Variation
• What is a trait that makes survival and reproduction more likely? – Adaptive trait
• What is a trait that makes survival and reproduction less likely? – Non-adaptive trait
• What is the toxic substance produced by rough-skinned newts? – TTX
• What is the predator of the rough-skinned newts in the unit? – Garter snake

How to Play

Choose one of the four numbered sets and distribute the cards among students. The starting player reads the first question. Students listen for the matching answer, respond with "I Have...," and read the next "Who Has...?" question.

Continue until the chain is complete.

Perfect For:

Grade 8 life science, Amplify Science review, natural selection instruction, adaptations, evolution, inherited traits, science vocabulary centers, cooperative learning, and assessment preparation.

Why Teachers Will Love It

Natural selection requires students to connect variation, inheritance, and environmental conditions to changes in populations over generations.

These interactive games reinforce scientific vocabulary while helping students explain how certain traits can become more common within populations.

Four sets. One hundred cards. An engaging way to explore survival, adaptation, and natural selection!
