This spring crossword is full of life-cycle clues: "It turns into a butterfly", "A baby frog that lives in water", "A young plant just starting to grow", "A flower on a fruit tree". Each puzzle picks 12 of 28 spring words, and the word bank keeps it doable for grades 2 to 4.
It's a good review after planting seeds or watching caterpillars, because kids have to connect each clue to a stage they've seen. For an extra step, have them draw a three-stage life cycle using three answers from the puzzle, like caterpillar, then butterfly, or tadpole, then frog.
Tips for using it
- Ask kids to circle every answer that is a baby animal.
- Do this one after the spring word search, when the words are already familiar.
