Kindergarten Grade Talking Points
- "Frogs are amphibians. They can live both on land and in water."
- "Frogs start their life as tiny eggs in the water. These eggs are called frogspawn."
- "After hatching from the eggs, frogs go through a stage called tadpole. Tadpoles have tails and live in the water."
- "As tadpoles grow, they develop legs and lose their tails. They become froglets, which are like young frogs."
- "Finally, the froglets grow into adult frogs. They have strong legs for jumping and eat insects."
