Life Cycle of a Plant Worksheet – Science Activitiy

Are your students learning about the life cycles of plants and animals? We’ve put together a fantastic cut-and-paste worksheet for students to demonstrate their understanding of the life cycle of a flowering plant.

Students will cut out images that represent the different stages of a flower’s life cycle and paste them onto their worksheets in the correct order.

The steps included in the worksheet are:

• A flower begins its life as a tiny seed, which was once part of a larger plant.
• Under the soil, the seed cracks and grows a tiny sprout, or shoot.
• The sprout continues to grow upward and the roots burrow into the soil.
• The plant gets taller, sprouts leaves, and grows a flower.
• The adult flower produces seeds and the cycle begins again.

Each student will require one life cycle worksheet. The cut-outs print three to a page to reduce paper usage.

An answer page is also included for reference.
