LIVING FOSSILS at The Center for the Collaborative Classroom
I am pleased to have my book LIVING FOSSILS: Clues to the Past included in the curriculum of the Center for the Collaborative Classroom, a nonprofit organization dedicated to students' growth as critical thinkers who learn from, care for, and respect one another.

Most living things differ greatly from their early ancestors. But not living fossils. A living fossil is a modern-day plant or animal that closely resembles its ancient relatives.

Coelacanths, horseshoe crabs, dragonflies, tuataras, nautiluses and the hula painted frog are living fossils. Living fossils are a mystery. Why did they change so little when the world around them changed so much?

Take a trip into the past and visit these amazing animals to see how they lived then. And have a look at how their descendants live now. How did these living fossils survive?
