Plant Life Cycle: How Do Plants Grow?
This worksheet helps children understand the
life cycle of a plant by arranging flashcards in the correct order. The goal is to sequence the steps that show how a plant grows from a seed into a mature plant.

🔍 Step-by-Step Explanation of the Plant Life Cycle
Let’s go through each stage and determine the
correct order:
1.
SEEDS
- This is the beginning of the process. Seeds are planted into the soil.
- *Image shows seeds being dropped into a pot.*
2.
SOIL
- Seeds need soil to grow. Soil provides nutrients and support.
- *Image shows soil being added to the pot.*
3.
WATER
- After planting, seeds need water to start germination.
- *Image shows watering the seeds in the soil.*
4.
SUNLIGHT
- Sunlight is essential for photosynthesis, which helps the plant grow.
- *Image shows the sun shining on the pot with seeds.*
5.
SPROUT
- With water, soil, and sunlight, the seed germinates and a sprout emerges.
- *Image shows a small plant (sprout) growing from the soil.*
6.
PLANT
- The sprout continues to grow into a full-grown plant, often producing flowers.
- *Image shows a mature plant with a flower.*

✔ Correct Sequence (Order):
1.
SEEDS
2.
SOIL
3.
WATER
4.
SUNLIGHT
5.
SPROUT
6.
PLANT
> 💡
Note: While "Sunlight" is shown as a separate step, it's actually required throughout the growth process. However, in this activity, it's treated as a necessary condition after planting and watering.

📌 Final Answer:
The
correct order for pasting the flashcards is:
1.
SEEDS
2.
SOIL
3.
WATER
4.
SUNLIGHT
5.
SPROUT
6.
PLANT
This sequence illustrates the
basic plant life cycle:
Seed → Soil → Water + Sunlight → Sprout → Mature Plant

✔ Tip for Kids: Think of it like planting a garden — first you put seeds in soil, then you water them and give them sunlight, and eventually they grow into big plants! 🌱☀️💧
