Explore the stages of the sunflower life cycle with this fun foldable activity. This hands-on resource is a mix of craft and worksheet. It can be used as a science center, for an interactive science notebook, or to support learning about plants, life cycles, sunflowers, or seasonal changes.

Simple directions with a picture are provided to help with folding. Once complete, the 2 halves of the sunflower are brought together, then gently pulled apart to reveal the life cycle stages inside.

Benefits of this activity

Low prep
Children learn about the sunflower life cycle in a fun and hands-on way, that’s a bit different from a standard science worksheet.
Can be used to introduce the life cycle, or as a review/assessment to check understanding.
Encourages fine motor/scissor skills, hand-eye coordination (folding), and sequencing.
Finished foldouts can be inserted into an interactive notebook where they can be referenced by children.

The templates

Template 1: Children color the sunflower and life cycle stages, match the words to the pictures, glue, cut, and fold.
Template 2: Children color the sunflower and life cycle stages, sequence the stages, glue, cut, and fold.
Template 3: Larger template. Children color the sunflower halves and life cycle stages, sequence the stages, glue, cut, and fold. The large sunflower is included with a circle outline, a rectangle outline, and with no outline.

I loved each and everyone one. My students loved being able to select from the different options of animals. It’s also an easy hands on activity. I used it with my 3 graders and plan to use it again with my 5th graders this year.
