This Ocean Mini Beasts set includes different sea life specimens, from crabs to jellyfish and octopus. The World Register of Marine Species has described 250 000 species and estimates another 750 000 are yet to be described. Trying to understand marine life one type at the time would be impossible, but we can look at almost everything that lives in the ocean by looking at the groups biologists have placed them in: Crustaceans,Cnidarians, Echinoderm, Mollusc and Vertebrate. This set contains at least one of each category. Students can identify the characteristics of each group, and sort the resin blocks accordingly. Let students find out what it is that makes them unique. Is it what they eat, where they live, or how they survive from predictors? These real-life specimens encased in resin allow children to see a close-up of marine creatures from different angles. They are an excellent resource to promote scientific inquiry and investigation. The specimens are safe to use by young children. This set includes 11 resin blocks, containing the following ocean creatures: Octopus (75 x 75 mm) Scatophagus Argus fish (75 x 75 mm) Starfish (75 x 75 mm) Jellyfish Giant sundial shell Hermit crab Common Triton snail Shrimp Fiddler crab Clam Sea cucumber(all the above blocks are 75 x 40 mm) A teacher’s guide is included with more information about each marine category, as well as activity ideas. The set is perfect for cross-curricular activities.
