5-Stage Life Cycle Template

Overview:

A blank 5-stage life cycle template where students choose an animal, then draw and write to explain its life cycle. Designed for middle and upper years students.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the life cycle stages of a chosen animal.
• Develop skills in drawing and writing to represent biological processes.
• Communicate the development and transformation of an animal through its life cycle.

How the Activity Works:

Students select an animal and use the blank 5-stage life cycle template to draw and write about each stage of the animal’s life cycle. They illustrate key stages such as birth, growth, reproduction, and aging, providing written explanations for each stage. This activity encourages creativity and reinforces biological concepts by helping students visualise and describe the life cycle of an animal.
