Life Cycles of Organisms

生物的生命周期

Description

Develop models to describe that organisms have unique and diverse life cycles but all share the common stages of birth, growth, reproduction, and death

Mastery Evidence
  • Describe the life cycle of at least two different organisms (e.g. butterfly, frog, plant)
  • Identify the common stages all life cycles share: birth, growth, reproduction, death
  • Explain how life cycles can look very different (metamorphosis vs gradual growth) but follow the same pattern
Assessment Prompt

Can your child compare the life cycle of a butterfly with that of a frog and explain what stages they all share — being born, growing, having babies, and dying?
