Evolution Time Line (English) – Nienhuis Montessori

The Nienhuis Montessori evolution time line in English set includes two time lines – 1 with text and pictures, and 1 without (lines only) made of a coated fabric, each measuring 57 x 240cm. This set also includes a set of transparent word cards and image cards for use on the time line as well as a wooden storage box.

This time line of life represents the beginning of life on earth from the simplest forms through the appearance of human beings. A great variety and magnificence of life is presented, with each organism a contributor to a vast cosmic scheme. It traces the Palaeozoic, Mesozoic, and the Cainozoic periods, beginning with the kingdom of Trilobites and ending with the human being.

The Montessori guide indicates a time line where vertebrates began, followed by fish and plants, then amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals.

Part of the cosmic education curriculum, the Nienhuis evolution time line forms the basis for lessons in chemistry, nutrition, categories of animals and plants, care and requirements of different animals, and their interrelationship with an ecological system.

By working with this set the child is introduced to formal scientific language of zoology, botany, and anthropology.

This Montessori material is suitable for children aged 6 years and up.
