Science
The Life Cycle of a Tomato Plant is a Grade 3 science worksheet that helps students identify and sequence stages in a tomato plant’s life cycle. Through eight multiple-choice questions, students recall specific stages, identify the mature plant as the third stage and fruit as the fifth stage, and connect the life cycle to its approximate 6–8-month duration. The worksheet also checks students’ understanding of what tomato plants need to grow, including soil, sunlight, and water, while distinguishing gravel as unnecessary. A true-or-false item reinforces that a tomato can be considered both a fruit and a vegetable. This free printable worksheet with an answer key is useful for science instruction, review, or a quick formative assessment of Grade 3 plant-life-cycle knowledge.

FAQs
What does The Life Cycle of a Tomato Plant worksheet cover?
This Grade 3 science worksheet uses eight multiple-choice questions to assess the sequence of a tomato plant’s life cycle, including identifying the mature plant as the third stage and the fruit as the fifth stage. It also checks understanding of the plant’s approximate 6–8-month life cycle, its growth needs, and the classification of a tomato as both a fruit and a vegetable.
How can I use this worksheet to teach the life cycle of a tomato plant?
Introduce the tomato plant’s stages with a visual sequence or real plant observations, then have students use the multiple-choice items to recall stage order and key growth conditions. After students complete the worksheet, discuss why soil, sunlight, and water support growth, why gravel is not needed, and how a tomato can be classified as both a fruit and a vegetable.
What mistakes should I watch for when students complete this tomato life cycle worksheet?
Watch for students confusing the numbered stages, especially the third stage, which is the mature plant, and the fifth stage, which is the fruit. Students may also select an incorrect life-cycle duration, identify gravel as a growth requirement, or mark False when asked whether a tomato is both a fruit and a vegetable.
