Questions for a parent with a young baby - Worksheet - Year 5

This worksheet, aimed at Year 5 students, prompts an exploration of the life cycles of humans and various animals. The questions are designed to engage students in a discussion with a parent or guardian of a young baby, with the goal of deepening their understanding of developmental stages. By asking what we know about the life cycles of humans and different animals, the worksheet encourages students to compare and contrast the similarities and differences across species. This comparative approach helps students to appreciate the diversity of life and the unique aspects of human development.

The worksheet also specifically asks about the life cycle of a young human being. This question is intended to guide students through the stages of human growth, from infancy to adulthood. Students are encouraged to consider the physical, emotional, and cognitive changes that occur throughout a human's life. By engaging directly with a parent of a young baby, students can gain firsthand insights into the early stages of the human life cycle, potentially covering topics such as newborn care, milestones in a baby's first year, and the progression from infancy to toddlerhood and beyond.
