A fun, foldable cut and paste activity for exploring the life cycle stages of a corn (maize) plant. Use this cross between a craft and a worksheet for a science lesson, in an interactive notebook, or for a plants, growing, harvest, or autumn topic activity.

The template options

There are 4 similar templates so you can select and print the one that best suits your pupils’ needs:

  • Colour the corn and the stages of its life cycle. Match the words to the pictures, cut and fold.
    As above but with a straight cutting edge.
  • Colour the corn and the stages of its life cycle. Sequence the stages, glue, and fold. There are 2 different label options for this - one with the life cycle stage names, the other with short descriptions.
  • As above but with the straight cutting edge.
  • Directions are provided as well as a folding guide with pictures.

Key vocabulary

The life cycle stage names used in this resource are seed, sprout, seedling, growing plant, flowers and mature corn.

What else is included?

  • Life cycle sequencing cards and arrows in colour and black/white. One way you could use these is to print them onto card and cut out each piece. Children could work in small groups to sequence the life cycle stages, using the arrows to link them together. Laminate for longevity.
  • Label the corn cut and paste activity.
  • Life cycle diagram (colour).
  • Facts about corn page.

Autumn plant life cycles foldable sequencing activities

This resource is a set of 3 plant life cycle foldouts to support KS1 or early KS2 science. The set includes templates for corn, pumpkin and apples life cycles. These fun printables are ideal for interactive science notebooks, and activities connected to harvest. Each set provides the opportunity for sequencing as well as encouraging fine motor skills with cutting and folding. Instructions and guidance for students on how to fold each one is included. **Apple foldout** There are 3 templates to choose from: 1. Colour the apple life cycle stages, cut out and sequence the life cycle stage words, glue and, fold. 2. Colour the life cycle stages, sequence the stages (pictures with words), glue, and fold. 3. Colour the life cycle stages and apple halves, sequence the stages (either with simple words, or with descriptions), glue, and fold. **Pumpkin foldout** There are 4 similar templates to choose from 1. Colour the pumpkin life cycle, cut and fold. 2. Colour, cut and fold. This is identical to the first template but with a simpler edge for less confident cutters. 3. Colour, arrange the stages of the pumpkin life cycle, glue, cut and fold. 4. Large version over 2 pages. Color, arrange the stages of the pumpkin life cycle, glue, cut and fold. **Corn/maize foldout** There are 4 similar templates: 1. Colour the corn and the stages of its life cycle. Match the words to the pictures, cut and fold. 2. As above but with a straight cutting edge. 3. Colour the corn and the stages of its life cycle. Sequence the stages, glue, and fold. There are 2 different label options for this - one with words, the other with short descriptions. 4. As above but with the straight cutting edge. For each life cycle, you'll find US and US paper sizes/spelling. In addition, each plant has a set of full colour sequencing cards that you could use as a small group activity.
