Life cycle of a daffodil flower spring science foldout activity KS1
Explore the stages of a daffodil’s life cycle with this fun folding science craft. Use this activity to support learning about plants, life cycles, spring/seasonal changes, growth or St David’s Day.
Print the black and white templates onto paper or card for pupils to colour and cut out.
There are 4 similar templates to choose from so you can pick one that best matches your pupils’ needs.
Template 1: Colour the template and life cycle stages, sequence the stages, glue, cut, and fold.
Template 2: As above but with a simple, straight cutting edge.
Template 3: Draw the life cycle stages onto the template, cut and fold (no glue required).
Template 4: As above but with a simple, straight cutting edge.
Simple instructions with pictures are provided to help with folding. Once complete, the 2 halves of the daffodil are brought together, then gently pulled apart to reveal the life cycle stages inside.
US and UK versions of the file are included, as well as some questions to discuss together.
