My Project
The structure of an animal's skull tells a lot about it. The teeth of an animal can showcase the organism's diet. The overall skull structure and eye positioning can also show if the organism could be a predator or prey animal. I would love to give my students the opportunity to analyze these skulls so they can gain a better understanding of physical adaptations. Adaptation and evolution are extremely important concepts to understand any biology, environmental science, or ecology course. I teach all three of these subjects and would love to use these skulls for all three.
A picture might be worth a thousand words, but nothing can beat the real thing.
This subscription will provide 6 months of skulls for future class analysis. I plan to have an unboxing warmup after every delivery so my students can share the excitement of discovering the mystery skull's identity. These skulls will help my students learn about ecology, evolution, and animal adaptations.
