What information is new to me? - Worksheet - Year 5

In a worksheet designed for Year 5 students, the focus is on exploring and reflecting on their existing knowledge as well as identifying new information they have learned about human and animal life cycles, and the concept of puberty. The worksheet is structured with a chart that prompts students to categorize their knowledge into three sections: what they already knew before, what is new to them, and any questions they may have regarding the information presented.

The first section of the chart asks students to recall and note down what they understand about the life cycles of humans and various animals, which may include stages such as birth, growth, reproduction, and aging. The second section is dedicated to the new information they have encountered, which could involve more detailed aspects of life cycles or specific examples from the animal kingdom that were previously unfamiliar to them. Finally, the third section encourages inquisitive thinking, allowing students to list any questions that arise from the new information, particularly about the term 'puberty', which is a significant stage in the human life cycle. This reflective exercise, provided by Focus Education (UK) Ltd, is intended to help students consolidate their learning and identify areas where they may require further clarification or study.
