Frogs and things!!!

Wow! It's been a very busy, yet short week. I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend. We accomplished a lot in four short days this week.  We are just finishing our unit on the life cycle of a frog. After reading several nonfiction books and watching a couple of informational videos about frogs, toads, and other amphibians. We brainstormed a list of facts about both and then filled out some graphic organizers complete with drawings of a frog and toad.  We made books about the life cycle of a frog in the shape of a lily pad.

We have also read A Whale is Not a Fish and we ate "Whale" crackers while we worked on a comparison worksheet.  They love anything they can eat!!! We read Frog and Toad are Friends to each other and then listened to the audio tape while reading it silently.  They giggled at the cookie chapter and again when Toad was singing to his plants.  Frog and Toad is an oldie, but a goody!
