Amphibians

This week we began the study of the five vertebrates.  Amphibians was first on the list!  We were able to borrow some Africian Water Frogs from a child's big brother! (Thank you Zach!)
The use of our three part cars are very important when learning about the parts of something.  We have the children match the pictures and also the words.
The children were able to make their own parts of a frog booklet to take home.  This not only helps them to understand the concept but also helps to refine their fine motor skills for drawing/writing.
 One of our afternooners used one of the moveable alphabets to write a thank you note.  He then copied it on paper and drew a picture. 
"Thanks Zack for lending the frogs."
