The Life Cycle of a Tree

From Tiny Seed to Towering Tree!

Introduce your child to the fascinating world of trees with this engaging, easy-to-understand Tree Life Cycle Printable.

This resource clearly illustrates the journey of a tree, starting from a tiny seed and progressing through all its major growth stages. 

It's a fantastic, visual aid for science lessons, homework, or curious nature lovers!

Key Stages Included:

• Seed/Acorn: The beginning of life, waiting for the right conditions to grow.

• Seedling: A very young plant with its first leaves and a soft stem.

• Sapling: A juvenile tree, growing taller and stronger.

• Young Tree: The transitional stage where the tree establishes its shape and canopy, continuing rapid growth.

• Mature Tree: A full-sized tree that can produce its own flowers, cones, or fruit to start the cycle all over again!

The printable is ideal for sequencing activities and clearly labelling each stage, reinforcing vocabulary and understanding of how living things grow and change. 

Perfect for Key Stage 1 (KS1) and Key Stage 2 (KS2) science units on plants and living things.
