Animals: Human timeline

This lesson pack supports pupils in understanding how humans grow and change over time. Children learn to order the stages of human development from birth to old age and describe the physical and developmental changes that occur throughout life. The pack also introduces changes during puberty, helping pupils recognise what happens and suggest simple ways to manage these changes. Learners explore the idea of a gestation period, compare gestation across different animals, and relate this to humans. Clear explanations and structured activities help pupils build secure, age‑appropriate scientific knowledge in line with the curriculum.
