DIGITAL DOWNLOAD: you receive a printable A4 PDF to print at home or school. No physical book is posted.

This 28 page Year 5 booklet asks whether all mammals develop the same way before moving into metamorphosis and how insects change as they grow. It uses a Venus flytrap and a newly hatched chick at opposite ends of the unit, and a section on how birds care for their young adds a behavioural angle. The booklet closes with sexual reproduction and whether two parents are always needed, giving plants their place alongside animals. It follows Year 5 science in England question for question, with a Watch the video button opening a free lesson by Brenda Hayles each time. Photographs of life cycles and diagrams comparing species appear throughout, with a vocabulary list at the back.

Inside:

• Six questions comparing life cycles across species
• A free YouTube lesson for each question
• Photographs and diagrams comparing life cycles
• Terms comparing metamorphosis and reproduction
