Build the Tree of Life from the kingdoms through phyla, classes, and species! This material teaches the classification of living things and illustrates the incredible diversity of life on Earth. Start building at the trunk, branching off with the first unicellular life in the Kingdom Monera; then, explore Kingdom Protista’s more complex single cells. Continue on to the multicellular life forms of Kingdom Fungi before exploring the Plantae and Animalia Kingdoms. Animals are explored from phylum to class. Chordates are further explored through their orders. Fact File Cards explain each classification’s attributes and provide information about each specimen illustrated on a leaf. Research masters for individualized study can be downloaded from our A–Z PDF library. (6 to 12 years)
