This challenging worksheet pulls together everything kindergartners have learned about how animals grow. Multiple choice questions ask for the correct order of a butterfly life cycle (egg, larva, pupa, adult), what body part a tadpole grows to walk on land, how a chick gets out of its egg by pecking the shell, and which stage a caterpillar rests and changes inside the pupa.

Fill-in-the-blank sentences add deeper ideas: frogs and butterflies both start as eggs, a cocoon protects the pupa inside, a grown frog breathes with lungs, and a life cycle goes in a circle over and over, building strong science thinking.
