This easy worksheet walks second graders through chicken and plant life cycles using three friendly activities. Part A asks students to sort words like chick, sprout, egg with shell, flower, hen, and seed into the correct cycle. Part B offers five fill-in-the-blanks about how a hen keeps eggs warm and how a sprout pushes through soil toward the sun.
Part C wraps up with four true-or-false statements covering the egg tooth, whether chickens go through metamorphosis, and what a seed needs. Sorting and checking each stage helps students see how plants and animals follow patterns as they grow.
