Frog Pattern Math
Frog Patterns for a Frog Unit Study
When planning activities for your Frog Unit Study you might think that math would be an abstract subject that has nothing to do with frogs. In this lens we will explore ways to integrated math into your study of frogs and tadpoles. Mathematics is based on patterns. Mathematicians use numbers and symbols to describe the patterns they find all around them. In this lens we will work with the frog theme to create and describe mathematical patterns as they relate to the Frog Unit Study. From Frog ...

Froggy Math Facts
Adding and Subtracting with Frogs
Continuing the Frog Unit Study this lens is all about adding and subtracting with frogs. Children learn best when given hands-on multi-sensory projects and games that relate to the overall subject being studied. With dozens of frog related addition and subtraction activities, matmats, workjobs and games children will soon have their number facts hop and jump right into their brains. Jump into the mathematical pond and catch the math facts... Photo Credit: Handful of Tadpoles on Flickr, Creati...

Geometry of Frogs
Frog Unit Study: Learning Geometric Shapes
As teachers and homeschoolers we often think of math a subject totally unrelated to the theme we are studying. In this lens I hope to dispel l this myth. Using the frog theme we will explore geometric shapes. From the circular bubbles rising up from the frog pond to making origami frogs, this lens is all about the geometry of frogs. Create a Frog Pond Bulletin Board using geometric shapes. Put together a triangular frog puzzle. Use pattern blocks, geoboards and many other materials to make fr...
