This unique variety of butterfly specimens is the perfect observational tool for biology. 

The Butterfly Life Cycle small set contains four specimens that exhibit the stages of butterfly growth. This will encourage students to engage in further biological research of the anatomy, habitat, and characteristics of the butterfly species. With real examples of a life cycle from egg to butterfly, this product provides students with a more comprehensive biological understanding of the world we live in. 

Practical and fun  

The butterfly life cycles are encased inside strong resin slabs that have been updated to include clear labels of each stages name. These can be placed inside foam inserts of the products box which is visually stimulating and conveniently sized for classroom storage. 

Additional resources 

Included is a teacher’s guide that provides students with games and activities related to learning about butterflies. Furthermore, this guide provides students with in-depth information about the origins and anatomy of the species.  

In the classroom, students can use these specimens to assist research into the life cycles of butterflies or another insect species. Students may wish to work independently or in groups to conduct a research project on one of the four specimens. Whilst the specimens are intended for studying science, students may wish to use these as inspiration for creative writing and making art.
