Have you had discussions about creation and evolution in your classroom? If so, how did those go? Is there anything you would do differently? If you have not had these discussions in your classroom, how do you think you would handle them?

I teach kindergarten and we talk a lot about creation. I have not been asked any questions about evolution but if I was I would reference the scriptures, and see what they had to say so my students could have a better understanding of the topic.

If I were to handle the discussion about evolution in my classroom, I would have an open debate with them and use scripture to guide the conversation.

Discussions about creation and evolution do not frequently come up. However, when they do, the discussion is based on scripture and what we are told to be truth. Basing the discussion on scripture and the understanding of God aids in the coloration of relevance to science.

I have had the occasion to have these discussions a few times in my teaching career. I’m not a science teacher, so it is a lot less often. However, the discussions went really well. The students who believe in creation often can’t explain why, which also has sparked deep discussion.
