We recently completed our thematic study on tree frogs in the rainforest. We learned about the flying tree frog, red eyed tree frog, and the posion dart frog. We talked about some of the vocabulary used when discussing tree frogs such as amphibian, Bromeliad ponds, camoflauge, imitating, life cycles, and ecosystem. The students enjoyed learning about the various types of frogs, and especially the poison dart frog. After learning about tree frogs they got to construct their own tree frog and paint it according to their favorite kind of frog that we learned about. To wrap up our unit on tree frogs, we went outside on a nature walk to observe some of the possibly habitats of tree frogs in the rainforest. The children were great at using their imagination!
