Life Cycle Clock

Level: Grades 2 – 8

Each living thing has a clock and a calendar of development. Some change dramatically in form throughout their lives. Construct a diorama that turns to reveal a model of your organism at each stage of its life. We offer materials to study beans, pumpkins, butterflies, frogs, or an organism of your choice.

Cost: $8 per student
