Create a Life Cycle Poster Using AI Support

Visualise the stages of a life cycle using clear AI-generated descriptions.

Teaching Context:
Great for Year 4 to Year 7 Biology or Science classes exploring animal or plant life cycles.

Basic AI Prompt:
Show me the stages of a frog’s life cycle with pictures.

Enhanced AI Prompt:
You are a Science student learning about life cycles. Choose an animal or plant and ask AI to explain each stage of the life cycle clearly. Include diagrams or picture suggestions and scientific vocabulary.

Spice it Up (Optional Extension):
Ask AI to suggest differences between the chosen life cycle and a human’s.

Lesson Implementation:
Review the key vocabulary for life cycles (e.g. embryo, metamorphosis). Students select an organism and use AI to generate a step-by-step life cycle explanation. They then create a poster using the information, either digitally (Canva, Adobe Express) or by hand.

Provide a template scaffold with sections for each stage, visuals and labels. Students can compare different organisms’ life cycles and present findings to the class. This lesson supports visual literacy and vocabulary development in Science.
