LIFE CYCLE OF A FROG MINI BOOK (B&W 8 PAGES)
After learning about the life cycle of a frog, children will cut out the pages of their books and put them in numerical order, placing the cover on top. Teachers/adults should staple the pages together. Students can then cut, sort, and glue the life cycle stage pictures onto the appropriate numbers. Color and enjoy!
JUMBO LIFE CYCLE OF A FROG SEQUENCING CARDS/STICKS (COLOR 6/B&W 6)
Print these cards out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Prompt children to place the cards in order according to stage. These cards are also a great way way to teach ordinal concepts (first, second, third, etc.) Tip: To make this activity extra fun for little hands, just glue the cards onto jumbo craft sticks and place in your science center.
NUMBER QUANTITY WITH FLIES (COLOR 10/B&W 10)
Print these cards out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Provide students with small, plastic insects (mini flies can be purchased on Amazon). Learners will place a numbered group of insects on its corresponding frog. Encourage younger children to use one-to-one correspondence while counting. Older children can use this activity to practice set recognition.
FROGS ‘N FLIES SPIN & ADD GAME (COLOR/B&W)
Print this activity out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Cut out the spinner card and attach a paperclip spinner with a round head fastener (brad). Cut out the frog and fly number cards. Provide each child with a game sheet and a stack of number cards (either frog or fly). Students will be adding numbers 1-5, so the stack should include 2 sets of 1-5 and then 6,7,8, 9 & 10, equaling 14 cards. Learners will compose a number sentence by spinning the spinner. The matching number card of the 1st spin, will be placed on the 1st gray space on the 1st line. The matching number card of the 2nd spin will be placed on the 2nd gray space on the same line. Children will add the 2 numbers together, placing the total number card on the last spot to solve the problem.
Below, students will replicate the equation using a small manipulative (build sets to match the numbers). Alternatively, the number sentence can be copied/written with a dry erase marker if laminated or placed in a sheet protector.
FROGGY ALPHABET MATCH-UP (COLOR 26/B&W 126)
Print these out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Cut out the frogs and lily pads, and prompt young learners to match the upper and lowercase letters.
WORKSHEETS (B&W 10)
With these 10 worksheets students will sort tadpoles, pattern and trace the names of pond items, and so much more!

RAINBOW ALPHABET MATCH-UP PUZZLES (COLOR 26/B&W 26)
Print these out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Cut the cards in half and have young learners match the upper and lowercase letters.
SPRINGTIME ROLL & COVER SHEETS (COLOR 4/B&W 4)
Print these sheets out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Provide mini erasers, pom poms, vase gems, or some other small manipulative for students to use as markers. For individual use, have the child roll the die, count the dots (or recognize the “set” of dots), and find and cover the corresponding number on the sheet. Repeat until all of the numerals are covered. In small group, give each child a sheet and have them take turns rolling the die. The first person to cover all of their numbers wins. Trade cards and play again!
WRITING PROMPT – “IF I HAD A RAINBOW OF MY OWN, I WOULD….”
Read the story A Rainbow of My Own by Don Freeman. Ask students what they would do if they had a rainbow of their own. Children will dictate their responses to teachers and draw a picture. Older children may copy their responses onto their papers, while some may even be able to write some of their own words. Two prompts are offered – one boy and one girl.
WORKSHEETS 14 + NUMBER BOOK (1-10) (B&W)
A My Spring Counting Book (1-10) is included in the worksheet section of this pack. Children will cut out the pages of the book. Teachers/adults should staple the pages together. Students can then count and write the number of spring items on each page and color the pictures.
Additionally, with these worksheets learners will compare sets, color by numbers, sequence a story, identify opposites, label beginning sounds of some spring things, and so much more!

WINTER BEGINNING SOUNDS CARDS (COLOR 8/B&W 8)
Students will sound out the names of the pictures in each set. Instruct them find and cover the main picture’s beginning sound partner. Provide pom poms, vase gems, mini erasers or some other manipulative for children to use as markers. For heavy use, print these out on carstock and laminate.

Provide Unifix Cubes or another small manipulative for children to measure (non-standard) the height of the items. Be sure to discuss which are taller, shorter, and the same size. Print these cards out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use).
WINTERTIME SPIN & COUNT SHEETS (COLOR 2/B&W 2)
For extra durability, print these sheets out on cardstock and laminate. Attach paperclip spinners with round head fasteners (brads). Provide pom poms, vase gems, mini erasers or some other small manipulative for students to use. Young learners will spin, identify a number and place that amount of items on their sheets. As children pick up and place each item, encourage them to say its number name (one, two, etc.). Older children may fill all three lines, while younger ones may only complete the first or second. Once finished, have students count all of the items on their sheets.
SNOWMAN (FROSTY) FRAME CARDS (COLOR 10/B&W 10)
Print these cards out on cardstock (laminate for heavy use). Provide mini erasers or some other small manipulative for students to use.
