About This Product
This educational science resource guides students through the four developmental stages of the taro plant. Using clear, real-life photography, children observe the plant's transformation from a sprouting corm set to a majestic mature plant with large elephant-ear foliage and harvest-ready underground corms while building scissor control and logical ordering skills on their researcher recording sheet.

Topics Included in This Pack

• Emergent Sprout: Early growth stage where a sharp, tender green spear breaks through the surface of the soil.
• Young Plant: Rapid vegetative development showing unfurling heart-shaped leaves on sturdy upright petioles.
• Mature Plant: Fully formed tropical plant displaying broad, umbrella-like green leaves and swollen, harvest-ready nutrient-rich corms underground.
