Human Life Cycle: Spin Wheel

Overview:

Build a spinning wheel to demonstrate the life cycle of a human. Designed for early and middle years students.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand the stages of a human’s life cycle.
• Identify key stages such as infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, and old age.
• Develop an understanding of the human life cycle and its relevance to human growth and development.

How the Activity Works:

Students will cut out both sheets and poke a hole through the centre point of each wheel. They will then use a drawing pin to fasten the wheels together, creating a spinning wheel that displays the different stages of a human’s life cycle. As they assemble the wheel, they will arrange the stages of the life cycle in the correct order. This hands-on activity allows students to visually engage with the life cycle of a human, reinforcing their understanding of human growth in an interactive and fun way.
