About this resource
Description
Living things grow and change, and noticing that change is one of the first ways young scientists learn to tell a living thing from a nonliving one. This Drawing Things That Grow Worksheet helps second graders think about how baby animals and seeds grow into adult plants and animals, and then show their own examples of things that grow.
The page starts with a short word bank and three simple questions. Students read about a playful puppy, a little acorn, and a wiggly tadpole, then write what each one grows up to be in its answer box. Next, children draw two living things that grow and finish a sentence for each one, telling how they know it grows. Use the drawing things that grow worksheet as a science warm-up, a center activity, or a quick check after a lesson on living things and plant and animal growth.
What’s Included
- A three-word bank: dog, frog, and tree
- Three read-and-write questions about how a puppy, an acorn, and a tadpole grow
- Two large drawing boxes for drawing living things that grow
- Two writing lines to explain how each drawing grows
- An answer key for the word bank section
Why This Worksheet Helps Kids Learn
First, it connects the idea of growth to animals and plants children already know, like a puppy that becomes a dog. Second, the word bank gives support while still asking students to read each question carefully. Third, the drawing and writing section asks children to choose their own examples and explain their thinking, which builds early science reasoning and writing skills together.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before the worksheet, show photos of baby animals and their parents, or plant a bean seed and watch it sprout over a week. After the page, invite students to share their drawings and read their sentences aloud, then sort the class examples into plants and animals. This 2nd grade living and non-living things worksheet also pairs well with a nature walk where children look for things that grow.
