Plant Life Cycle Lesson Plan for Kids

This lesson plan outlines a 1-hour science class for students ages 8-12 on the life cycle of plants. The objectives are for students to analyze plant growth, identify plant parts, and observe changes during the life cycle. Activities include watching a video on the life cycle, identifying plant parts using bean plants, examining fruit seeds, and sequencing pictures of the life cycle. Students will be assessed through observation, questioning, and a worksheet sequencing the life cycle stages.

Teaching Strategies/Methods

Guided Discovery

Tapping prior knowledge

Lecture

Demonstration

Individualised Instruction

Resources/Technologies

 One flowering potted plant


 Fruits and vegetables
 White paper
 Crayons 
 Seeds

Set Induction

Students will walk in the class and see different fruits and vegetables displayed along with
their bean and melon plants they planted previously.  The students will be asked to play a
game of what came first the seed or the fruit.  After one round the teacher will introduce the
topic of The Life Cycle of A Plant
Learning Activities/Experiences

 Students will engage in a video on the life cycle of a plant

 Students will then be asked what part of the plant bears the fruit
 Students will be asked to discuss the different seeds and their shapes and colour for
the difference and similarities.

 Students will be asked to look at their bean plants and identify the parts of the plant:
roots, stems, leaves, and flowers.
 Students will examine the inside of fruits that have been cut to expose their seeds to
better understand that seeds develop inside fruits. 
 Students will sequence pictures in the correct order to demonstrate the life cycle of a
plant
