Apple Life Cycle Poster and Sequencing Cards

Using real photographs, this apple life cycle poster and sequencing cards packet, allows students to become familiar with the life cycle of an apple tree. The real photographs will help students identify these images in real life examples.

What is Included:

This packet includes an apple life cycle poster as well as sequencing cards that go along with each step in the life cycle poster.

How to Use:

The life cycle poster makes a great visual display in a science center for students to look at and explore the life cycle of an apple tree. The sequencing cards can also be placed in the science center. Students can use the poster as a reference to place the sequencing cards in the correct order.

Another way to use the sequencing cards is to place the cards on a ring in the correct order so students can flip through the life cycle of an apple tree.

Where to Use:

Besides the science center, the teacher can use the life cycle poster as an instructional tool to show and teach students about the life cycle of an apple tree. The cards can also be placed in a pocket chart by students or the teacher to represent the life cycle with a hands-on activity.

The apple life cycle poster is a no prep display the teacher can use to teach about this science concept. The poster can be printed on card stock or laminated for durability. The sequencing cards require some easy prep. They need to be printed and cut apart. Again, laminating these cards for durability is an option.

Skills Assessed:

This set will help students identify the life cycle of an apple tree. Using the reference of the life cycle poster, students will place the life cycle cards in the correct order. Students will learn that apple trees grow from apple seeds, that an apple tree must grow and produce fruit in order to get new apple seeds.
