Ribbit! Ribbit!

This week we have been talking about frogs! We have been listening to them sing at the nature center. We found some great books at the library to share-

In the Small, Small Pond by Denise Fleming

 Ah Ha! by Jeff Mack

It's Mine! by Leo Lionni

A Frog's Life by Ellen Lawrence

After we looked at the frogs life cycle we drew the stages and used finger prints for the tadpole and frog...



We went on a listening adventure and read It's Mine! and In the Small, Small Pond. Then, we took a look at Monet's Water Lilies for inspiration.

After we were all done we read the book Ah Ha! This was a fun one to read because it's just two words but the meaning changes on each page as you look at the expressions on the animals faces......
