Change

This term our topic is 'Change'. We have been doing different science experiments and discussing the changes that we have observed. 
Now we have some tadpoles in the classroom and it is fun to see them change.

Today we wrote about our tadpoles.

Our classroom has three tadpoles. They have back legs. Soon they will get their front legs. Then their tails will disappear.

Our tadpoles have back legs. Soon they will change into frogs. They might hop all over the room!

Our three tadpoles have back legs. Later they will be frogs. I think that they grow into frogs. They are eating weeds. They will grow too big next year and we will have to fill our classroom up with water.

Our classroom has tadpoles, there are three in their cage. Their back legs are coming out. After that they will grow front legs and their tails will shorten and they will turn into frogs.

Tennille brought along her book about 'Frogs". We learnt lots of interesting facts.
Did you know...
Tadpoles are in their eggs for 9 days before they hatch out?
We thought it was amazing to learn that it took a tadpole a whole day to wriggle free from their egg.
It is also clever that a tadpole grows back legs, then front legs and then their tail disappears and they have changed into a frog.
We discovered where our lungs were in our body and were surprised to learn that tadpoles changed from breathing through their gills to breathing through their lungs.
Thanks Tennille for bringing along your book to share with us.
