Life Cycle: Match Evidence to a Stage
Name:
Date:
Today I am practising: using an observable clue to identify a life-cycle stage
1
Match 'has a tail and swims' to tadpole.
2
Match 'has wings and lays eggs' to adult butterfly.
3
Match 'tiny leaves push above soil' to sprout.
4
Draw one clue for a chick stage.
5
Circle the word in a clue that helped you decide.
6
Tell an adult why one clue would not fit an adult plant.
- Read clues aloud if reading level would hide the science reasoning.
- Ask children to underline or point to the evidence word before naming a stage.
- Use only the stages shown on the page so there is one clear supported answer.
