How an Apple Grows: The Life Cycle
What do you already know about how apples grow?
Learning Objective
At the end of the lesson you will understand the stages of how an apple grows from a seed to a fruit and be able to put them in order.
Stage 1: The Apple Seed
Every apple starts as a tiny seed, planted in the soil where it begins its journey.
Stage 2: Seedling Grows
The seed grows roots and a shoot appears. A small apple seedling pushes out of the soil.
Stage 3: Growing Into a Tree
The seedling becomes a young tree. It grows leaves and gets stronger each year.
Stage 4: Blossoms Appear
When the tree is ready, flowers called blossoms appear. These are important for making apples.
Stage 5: Tiny Apples Form
After blossoms are pollinated, little green apples begin to grow where the flowers were.
Stage 6: Apples Are Ready to Eat
The apples grow bigger and change colour. Now, they are fully grown and ready to be picked and enjoyed.
Let’s Practise!
Work in your groups. Use your cards to put the stages of the apple life cycle in the correct order. Discuss your choices together!
