Life Cycle: Informational Article, QR Code Research Page & Fact Sort is a set of 7 informational articles all about animals that undergo a metamorphosis. These articles are full of interesting facts and details that students can use during reading and writing activities.
Includes an article about each animal in two formats (two-page color photos & one-page text), QR Codes for online articles and videos about the animal and a fact sort sheet where students can sort facts about each animal’s attributes, actions, and environment.
I use these articles as a resource when researching and writing about life cycles and metamorphosis. We read the article, look at a variety of websites and watch a couple videos to gather all our facts about the animal. Once we have the facts, we sort the facts into categories and then write our research report.
The articles are written at about a second / third-grade reading level and are controlled for sentence length and complexity.
★ Also available as a BUNDLE with other animal articles. ★
These articles complement my Informational Writing Tools packet.

This product does not include any graphic organizers or comprehension questions. There are graphic organizers in the Informational Writing Tools packet or Graphic Organizers Product.
Some videos are on YouTube, so be sure you can access the website at school.

This animal life cycles resource was perfect for our science unit! It included several animals and had everything I needed to teach a full, engaging unit. My students loved the activities and learned so much. A fantastic, all-in-one resource!

I used this with my first graders mostly for the writing information and to put it together. This worked well with assistance for them and it was definitely more aligned with standards for 2nd and 3rd grade. This worked perfectly for my more advanced students. I do love how it had so many options to have students use and practice on. It had good, solid information to help them write their informative writing. I would definitely recommend for 2nd-4th grade.
