Animation of a Life Cycle
Every living thing has something in common: They all have a beginning, a lifetime and an ending. But every life is not the same.
Some lifeforms live for many, many years, such as the Galapagos Tortoise.

But that's nothing compared to some trees!
Some of them can live for thousands of years.
Other organisms live a very short life -- blink and you will miss it!

All living things have a whole lot in common, though. A short life or a long life, both are valuable and play their part in the world. Mother Earth lives in a perfect balance; all things must give and take from each other fairly, in symbiosis, in other to sustain all lifeforms.
To understand symbiosis, watch the video to the right. |

Bonus question -- How do humans interact with nature? Are they in symbiosis?
Let's look at these commonalities on the video below, about characteristics of life.
Now, you do it!
Pick a lifeform (animal or vegetable) and animate its life cycle on an animation strip.
Then, write a conclusion paragraph to accompany this animation.
Talk about the life form: how does it compare to human life? How is it different?
Record your animation and share with your friends!
And most of all... have fun!
