Periodical Cicada Calendar Slideshow
Science NetLinks is part of the Thinkfinity, a partnership between the Verizon Foundation and eight premier educational organizations. The Thinkfinity partners include the AAAS, the National Endowment for the Humanities, the National Council on Economic Education, the National Geographic Society, the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, the International Reading Association, the National Council of Teachers of English, and the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts.
The Thinkfinity partnership provides free, Internet-based content across academic disciplines. Science NetLinks' role is to provide a wealth of standards-based resources for K-12 science educators, including lesson plans, interactives and reviewed Internet resources.
Science Netlinks has a lesson called Periodical Cicada Survival on exploring defense mechanisms involved in predatory/prey relations. A part of this lesson includes an excellent slideshow, A Periodical Cicada Calendar on the cicada life cycle.
