Year 2 To find out how animals change as they grow into adults

Thankyou for looking at my resource.

This is the second lesson in a sequence. The lesson can be taught independently without the need for the further lessons or the previous lesson. This lesson can be picked up and taught straight from however this is fully editable.

In this lesson children will play a child friendly version of two truths one lie. Children will be informed that Ms Cheeky has changed one of three scientific facts and they have to identify which one is the not fact. This will provide an opportunity for the teacher to make a quick assessment of any learning which needs recapping on. This will also ensure that prior learning is at the forefront of children’s mind to make sense of their new learning.

Children will link their prior learning on offspring by thinking how a baby develops from a baby to an adult. Children will start this by looking at humans as an example of offspring that look like their adult . Children will then move onto looking at a frog. Children will have it highlighted that in future learning that this is called metamorphosis. Children will not needed to remember this to complete their learning.

Once learning about the frog’s lifecycle and given opportunity to consolidate this learning. Children will create their own frog lifecycle.

Helping hands will be provided for children who need additional support as well as a chilli challenge for both independent tasks.

The chilli challenge should be provided to all learners the ’ differentiation ’ will be based on how children complete the task.

Children will have stem sentences to support oracy and enable children to focus on the science rather than forming a sentence.
