Year 2 To name, order and compare stages of the human life cycle

Thankyou for looking at my resource.

This is the third 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 start by playing a child friendly version of two truths and lie. Ms Messy has change one of our science facts which is the not true fact? This will ensure that quick assessments can be made of what children have already learnt and identify any gaps that need revisiting. This will also ensure that prior learning is at the forefront of children’s mind to make sense of their new learning.

Children will start by recapping on what life cycles are and label the life cycle of a frog. Children will then complete a number of tasks to help them understand that there are things that they can do now because they are no longer a baby. They will also develop an understanding that there is things they still need to develop to become an adult.

Children will complete the first task

Task 1 - They will name and order the human life stages.

Children will then start to identify when specific things occur for most people during the life cycle.

Task 2 - Children will then identify when things usually start/happen in the life cycle.

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.
