Frogspawn!

There is a pond near to my house that we walk by on the way to school each day.  The children noticed that there is a lot of frogspawn in the pond, so each day we go and have a look at it, sometimes there are frogs there too, other days the frogs are hiding.  The children love it!


We collected some frogspawn last week which is now in a glass bowl in the kitchen, it is the first thing the children notice as they walk in, and the changes in the frogspawn over the last week are immense.  Each day we check to see what is happening now.

Day 1 of frogspawn

Day 3.

Day 4.

This afternoon J did a frogspawn, tadpole and frog picture.  He coloured in a frog and a tadpole and then I cut them out while J glued blue tissue paper onto card to make a pond.  J drew black dots onto bubble wrap to make frogspawn.  He then glued everything onto the pond to create his finished masterpiece!
