What is a Phenology Wheel?
A phenology wheel template is a circular journal or calendar that shows your observations and discoveries about nature during a certain period of time; in this case, your monthly observations.
Your observations can be as broad or as narrow as you’d like.
Maybe your observations include that of nature in general, or just birds, or maybe a certain species of bird.
Or, you could work on several phenology wheels at once – with different observations on each.
What’s Included in the Monthly Phenology Wheel Template
One page that includes a phenology wheel template with the months of the year. A title is also included to make it easy to cut and paste into a journal if you’d like.

- Print out the phenology wheel template. If you’d like your wheel smaller, you can print two sheets to a page. Or, scale the size down.
- Print on cardstock for added durability.
- Decide what you want your monthly nature observations to be – nature in general, the trees, a particular tree, etc.
- Draw your observations each month. Then, color or paint them in if desired.
- Once your phenology wheel is completely filled in, either laminate it or cut it out, along with the title banner, and paste it into a spiral notebook along with your other printables or work.
