Life Cycles and Frogs

I love spring time!  I also love teaching science.  The good news is that our life cycle standards fall into this part of the school year!  I love teaching the kids about life cycles and they think it's hilarious to learn about frogs...especially after I tell them I am terrified of of the pesky amphibian!

We sadly don't have much time to teach science and social studies these days but I try to cram it in whenever possible because I enjoy it more than math.  ;-)  We began our discussion by using an archived version of Scholastic Weekly News (1st grade edition).



We then continued our lesson by watching a video on Brain Pop.  Ya'll, isn't BrainPop the best?!  Moby is so darn smart!

Then we followed it up with an activity that was so much fun!!




This precious activity can be found here:

It is titles "Frog and Life Cycle Facts" by Lita Lita on TpT.
