Plants and Animals of the Past Topic Set

Thirty-two hand selected plant and animal fossils with a classroom activity set.

The relationship between ancient environments and past life on Earth is revealed by the various kinds of plants and animals that have been preserved as fossils. With the materials in our GEO-logic collection, students review the various kinds of fossils that existed in different geologic time periods and explore the connection between the fossils and the environments in which they lived. A teacher's guide and student copymasters are included for the following activities: comparing fossils and recent organisms, the succession of life, and ancient environments. The set comes packed in two compartmented boxes.
