Earthworm Life Cycle Model & Puzzle Set

The Earthworm Life Cycle Model & Puzzle Set offers a fun, tactile, and immersive way for students to explore the complete metamorphosis of an earthworm. Designed for early learners and primary students, this engaging set combines realistic figurines with interactive wooden puzzles, making it a valuable addition to any life sciences or biological studies program. The plastic figures provide a tangible reference for each stage of development, while the wooden puzzles challenge students to sequence events and connect visual learning with verbal and written understanding. Housed in a sturdy wooden storage box, this complete resource makes it easy to transport, store, and integrate into rotating science stations or nature study corners. Informative text and title cards further enhance comprehension and provide clear guidance for educators and learners alike.
