About This Game

This engaging word sort activity helps elementary students understand the diverse methods of reproduction in living organisms. Students categorize 12 different reproductive processes and behaviors into three categories: Plant Reproduction, Animal Reproduction, and Growth Signs. The activity aligns with NGSS standard LS1.B and demonstrates how different organisms ensure species continuation through various reproductive strategies. By comparing plant and animal reproduction methods, students develop a deeper understanding of life cycles and the essential role of reproduction in maintaining species survival. The activity emphasizes the diversity of reproductive strategies while highlighting the common goal of continuing life.
