Seed Sequencing Activity for Preschool and Toddlers
Seed Sequencing Activity
As a part of our study on seeds and
germination, I made this simple and easy to use printable to go over
the steps of the process that a seed takes as it transforms into a
seedling. We used words relating to time such as, “first,”
“next,” “after that,” and “finally.” In talking about
the steps and putting them in the correct order, children will be
working on skills that will help them with writing and retelling
literature.
You will need:
- paper
- construction paper
- scissors
- glue
- crayons or colored pencils (optional)
Print out the sequencing page. Discuss
the steps that the seed undergoes as it sprouts.
:
- First, the seed falls in moist soil, where it can grow.
- Next, the seed coat bursts open and a root emerges.
- After that, the stem begins to grow upward and the root grows larger.
- Finally the seed leaves emerge from the soil.
Provide crayons or colored pencils, and
allow them to color. Help them to cut out the pictures. Scramble
them up and ask the child to put them in the right order. Ask them
to tell you how a seedling grows, using the picture. Use the sequence words to prompt them throughout the story, if needed.
