This medium worksheet deepens second graders' knowledge of butterfly and frog stages through two focused activities. Part A has nine fill-in-the-blank questions covering vocabulary like egg, chrysalis, and how tadpoles breathe. Part B is a matching exercise where students pair life cycle stages such as egg, caterpillar, chrysalis, and adult butterfly with descriptions like 'flies and sips nectar' or 'eats leaves and grows bigger'.
It builds careful reading and recall skills.
