Read books about the life cycle of a frog such as "Life Cycle of a Frog" by Angela Royston, "A New Frog" by Pamela Hickman or "From Tadpole to Frog" by Wendy Pfeffer. Discuss the stages of the frog life cycle such as egg, tadpole, tadpole with legs, froglet and adult. Invite kindergartners to make their own frog life cycle drawings on paper plates with arrows between the stages, or on half sheets of paper stapled into frog life-cycle mini books.
Have kindergartners create frog puppets by folding a green paper plate in half to make the mouth. Add construction paper eyes, legs, arms and a long tongue. Invite kindergartners to make frogs out of recycled toilet paper rolls painted green. Use construction paper to cut out legs and glue on googly eyes. Provide large sheets of paper and paints for student to paint pictures of a pond with frogs and lily pads.
Take time out for frog-hop races when kindergartners need to get up and get moving. Have kindergartners use meter sticks or tape measures to measure out race courses 10 feet, 20 feet or 10 meters long. Invite students to line up on the starting line. Have kindergartners squat down with their hands on the ground in front of them. When students hear "go," they take big leaps in the air like frogs to the finish line.
Read "The Frog Prince" to students. Create a felt board center with characters from the story for students to use while retelling the story. Encourage kindergartners to create costumes and props to act out their own version of "The Frog Prince" with a hug at the end. Invite kindergartners to write a class version of "The Frog Princess" where a princess turns into a frog. Have an adult write the words on sheets of paper and allow kindergartners to illustrate the pages.
