Could you create your own frog life cycle? How you do that is up to you! A diagram with picturew, arrows and labels would be super. What about quartering a paper plate and using differnt craft pieces to represent the different stages of growth?
Try making a model about one part of the frog life cycle. You could use playdough, paper, empty cardboard boxes ot tubes, yoghurt pots or plastic bottles. You could make a frog, a tadpole, a froglet or even the frogs spawn!!

I wonder if you could create an obstacle course, remembering to include a jumping elelement. Ask an adult to time you as you complete it. Can you beat your time as you complete it or challenge somebody else to complete the course you have made, faster than you!
