Full Year Course Prepares Students For AP And College

6-7 MYA. The Sahelanthropus tchadensis skull was discovered by Michael Brunet's team in Chad in 2001 and described in Nature in 2002.

This human skull displays the trauma inflicted by at least one shotgun round.

2.9 to 3.6 MYA. Australopithecus afarensis is the best represented early hominid with approximately 100 fossils representing the species.

Hands-on, standards-based lab kit that helps students examines the importance and environmental impacts of mining.

Unique Method Allows Easy Observation of Starch Breakdown

Use this convenient set of labs as the base for a complete environmental science course. You can perform demonstrations that cover most of the topics recommended in the AP Environmental Science course with the materials included here.

Step by step, your students can build a DNA molecule model, and simulate the 'unzipping' of hydrogen bonds in the replication of DNA.

3.2 MYA. The Australopithecus afarensis skull 'Lucy' was discovered by D. Johanson in 1974 in Hadar, Ethiopia.

Explore the carbon cycle by simulating the production of carbon dioxide due to microorganisms in soil.

Hands-on, standards-based lab kit that helps students explore soil properties and their impact on plant growth.

Simplified techniques introduce molecular biology.

Considered to have lived 2.5 MYA, the Australopithecus africanus Skull Sts 5 'Mrs. Ples' was discovered in 1947 by R. Broom and J. Robinson in Sterkfontein, Transvaal, South Africa.

This skull is a replica of Dawson's so-called "Dawn Man," which had been unearthed in a gravel pit at Piltdown near Sussex, England, by Charles Dawson in 1912.

1.7 MYA. Female. The Australopithecus boisei skull KNM ER 732 was discovered in 1970 at Koobi Fora, Kenya by R. Leakey and H. Mutua and described in Nature in 1971.
