The sidewall includes an exterior face and a first set of indicia disposed on the exterior face of the sidewall at a plurality of radial positions around the sidewall. The band has an exterior face and a second set of indicia disposed on the exterior face of the band in a plurality of radial positions around the band. The band rotates around the sidewall to a plurality of radial positions where the first set of indicia and the second set of indicia align. The first and second sets of indicia are selected to have educational significance when aligned in selected combinations.
