Description
Explore the stages of an apple tree's life cycle with this differentiated foldable sequencing activity. This printable (PDF) cut-and-paste apple craft is a fun alternative to a worksheet for Kindergarten and early elementary students. It can be used to introduce the apple life cycle, or as a review activity.
Children sequence the life cycle stages on their foldout from an apple seed, to sapling, tree, bud, flowers (blossom), and fruit. They then cut out the template and fold it. Students will LOVE opening their foldout to reveal the sequence of the life cycle stages inside!
Use this activity to support a lesson on plant life cycles, fall, harvest, thanksgiving, growth, or Johnny Appleseed. It's also ideal for science centers and interactive notebooks.
