butterflies, frogs, and plants and explain what each
stage means. Afterwards, on slide 3 the students will
be able to pick a partner and come up to the board
and use their fingers to drag and drop the words to
fill in the blanks based on what they learned about a
butterfly from the lesson.
2. On slide 4 the students will come up in groups 3 and
touch each question mark to know what the stages
of a butterfly are. Then with the same groups on
slide 5, the students will put the life cycle of a
butterfly in order by dragging which occurs first and
which occurs last. On slide 6 the students will be
given pictures of the butterfly cycle and arrows for
them to show the life cycle of a butterfly.
Afterwards, they will label the stages.
3. With new partner, on slide 7 students will use their
fingers to drag and drop the words to fill in the
blanks based on what they learned about frogs.
4. On slide 8, with the same partner students are going
to use their fingers to drag the photos of a frog cycle
in order from egg to an adult. Then, on slide 9, the
students will find out if they got the frog cycle in
order or how close they got to the correct order.
5. On slide 10, the students with a group of 3 will use
the pictures and arrows in the slide to show the life
cycle of a frog. Afterwards, they will label the
stages as well.
6. On slide 11-13, students with a partner or groups of
3 will drag and drop the words, put the plant cycle
in order (they can tap the card if are not sure the
name of the cycle), and use the pictures and arrows
to show the life cycle of a plant and they will label
the stages.
7. On slide 14, two students will come to the board and
use their finger to drag and drop the life cycle of a
plant and frog in the correct order on the yellow and
pink flower.
8. On slide 15, the students will have a choice to come
up and insert pictures or draw of a life cycle of their
choice. They can use the arrows that was given to
them or they can draw it by hand. After, they will
label the stages.
9. Lastly on slide 16, I will end the lesson by a
lifecycle word search. As an exit ticket, the students
