Materials
Different kinds of life cycle cards, showing in a series of pictures for the life cycle of a flower, a tree, a fish, a bird, a frog, ... etc.
Each picture may be accompanied by a brief caption.
The life cycles may be:
- Linear, like a time line. This is particularly appropriate for showing birth to death life cycles.
- Circular, which is good for showing annual life cycles of plants, and for showing the migration and hibernation patterns of animals.
Preparation
Presentation
- Directress selects a life cycle card.
- She presents and discusses what we see in the sequence of pictures, from the beginning of life to the end.
Control Of Error
Points Of Interest
Purpose
- Awareness of life cycles.
- Discuss subjects like migration, hibernation, pollination, etc.
- Aware that living things are interconnected and that life is a never ending cycle, even though individuals die.
- Provide more practice at observation skills required for any matching activities.
- Extend the child's vocabulary.
Variation
