Frog Life Cycle Activities for Reading and Science

I'm so excited that it's finally Spring!!! Shortly after I teach my mini unit on Spring, I will begin teaching a unit on life cycles of plants and animals. I created a set of activities for Reading and Science for the life cycle of frogs. Be sure to check it out in my TpT store. It is only $2! I have also included some freebies for you below!

Here's a life cycle box book freebie I created to go with this unit! I tried it out on my daughter and she did well with direct instruction. I hope you get the idea of how it goes together from the directions. :)



I also created a Do You Like Frogs? graph and response sheet as a freebie to include in my unit above.



I also found the following activities to help me teach my frog life cycles mini unit. I hope you find the following links helpful, as well!


Life Cycle of a Frog Animated Science Video
Life Cycle of a Frog color page
Life Cycle of a Frog Online Puzzle (I'm going to use this at the end of the unit for a visual review.)

Frog Nomenclature Book (Montessori)
Understanding Webbed Feet
Frog Metamorphosis Diagram This diagram is a little bit better at showing a few more changes in the stages of the life cycle.

Do you have any great ideas for teaching life cycles? My favorites are actually the butterfly and the chick. :)

    1. Hi Michelle! I purchased the frog cycle graphics from Graphics From the Pond and some from Scrappin' Doodles. Here's a link to the frog cycle graphics: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Frog-Life-Cycle-Sequence-Graphics-Color-Line-Art.
