Life Cycle Learning Activity Packs

Monday, November 4, 2019

I added some life cycle sets in the shop and today I want to present the activities included in each set to give you an idea on how to use them.  I hope you will find this guide helpful.  If you have any questions you can post them in the comment section of this post or message me a question in my printable shop.

Life Cycle Learning Materials
These are the life cycle sets currently available in the shop or you can get the  BUNDLE which also includes the Water Cycle.  In this post I will talk about the updates I made in the new sets.  The old life cycle sets will also be getting these updates soon.
  • Butterfly Life Cycle
  • Apple Life Cycle
  • Frog Life Cycle
  • Turkey Life Cycle
  • Penguin Life Cycle
  • Polar Bear Life Cycle
The BUNDLE, is a growing set which includes ALL LIFE CYCLE packs I have in the shop and the ones that I will be creating in the future.  At the moment, you can get it at a super discounted price, but as I add more files into it, the price will also increase.  So I highly recommend that you get this one to avail the HUGE DISCOUNT!

So let's take a look at the new and improved life cycle sets!

LIFE CYCLE MASTER CHART

This activity is presented first to the child.  The file contains a chart with a simple and clear representation of the animals' life cycle.  It comes with life cycle stages cut-outs so the child can recreate the life cycle in bigger spaces like an A3 cardstock, boards, or walls.

LIFE CYCLE 3-PART CARDS

Since this is a Montessori-friendly material, I added 3 part cards for those who wishes to use this method of learning (picture-label-control cards matching).

BLANK LIFE CYCLE CHARTS

Once the child is familiar with the life cycle, you can work on this extension activity by allowing your child or student to recreate the life cycle chart with the use of descriptions or reading life cycle stages.  You need to guide your child if your kids or students can't read yet.  And if you find this work too advanced for your child, you can always skip on this activity and come back to it later once they are old enough to do the work.

You can also use animal life cycle mini toy figures if they are available.

LIFE CYCLE WORKSHEETS FOR COLORING AND WRITING

Younger kids love to color, trace and make their own booklets!

LIFE CYCLE SEQUENCING: CUT AND STICK ACTIVITY

The inspiration of this activity is due to my son's obsession with cut and stick activities!  In this activity, the child will order the life cycle pictures using the numbers in the mat as a guide.

LIFE CYCLE TIMELINE WHEEL

This is something that I just made recently.  The background story of this new material is that Vito was quite confused with the timeline of the life cycle.  He has no perception of the time it takes for each of the stages to develop.  Thus, I created these wheels for the new sets as a BONUS so that the child can visualize and understand the activity/life cycle of an animal or plant on a year's timeline (presented via seasons).

And that's about it!  More life cycle sets are coming in 2020.  So if you have requests or suggestions be sure to leave them in the comment or message me in my shop.

Happy learning!
