THE LIFE CYCLE OF A LADYBIRD
Week 5
Truth to Teach (Source)
To show that God provides.
To study the life-cycle of the ladybird
Way to Work (Means)
1. Review.
2. Sing a song such as ‘The Lord’s my Shepherd I’ll not want.’
This song is true for us, but is it true for beetles?
Introduce the children to beetles, explaining what beetles are:
• protective parts
• different kinds - God had some fun!
3. God provides for the young through the parents. Explain with particular reference to
ladybirds how the parent beetles lay their eggs in the best place for their young to
have a supply of food and drink. God provides!
Learning for Life (Fulfilment)
The children will have become familiar with the stages in the life-cycle of a ladybird as well
as learning about the provision of God.
