The children in EYFS have started to learn about the lifecycle of a frog. Last week the children learnt about what frogs look like by making representations of frogs using their art skills. The children learnt that frogs live in ponds, they have long legs to help them jump and swim in the water.

This week the children went to look at our school pond to see if we can find any frogs…

The children could see the shape of the pond was a circle and their was pond weed and plants growing in the pond for the animals to eat and hide in. When the children looked closely at the pond they could see – frogspawn that the frogs had laid.

The children collected some of the frogspawn and put it into a tank for the classroom so they can observe the changes over time and what happens next to the frogspawn.
