| Title: |
The Life of the Forest Poster Set |
| Description of Resource: |
The forest is a complex community where trees and other plants and
animals live in delicate balance. The 10 posters explore the growth
process of trees, their role in the forest world, how trees can be
utilized fully without waste, and how improvements can be made to
their growth.
The story begins with the development of a seed. Then we see how
the trunk feeds and supports a growing tree, investigate the life
history of a tree through its rings, discover the uses of a single
log, and much more. |
