Caught You Visualizing!

Recently our class did a shared reading about a relatively new species of amphibian: the purple frog.  After reviewing our anchor charts and strategies, I asked the students to demonstrate their visualizing skills by drawing what they thought the frog looked like. Each student created their own overhead transparency which were displayed for all to see.  Ask your child about it!  Here are the results.

If you would like to see what a real purple frog looks like, and if you would like some scientific information about it, click here.

After that activity, we continued working on extending our understanding by making connections open response questions, in pairs.  Check it out!
