STEM Frog Research for Kindergarten: Combine Language, Science, and Fine Motor

How to Do STEM Research for Kindergarten

 Create K-W-L Chart

We created  Know and Learned lily pads to guide our research and discussion.  
With I Know…I recorded the students’ ideas down on sticky notes as a group. 
After our unit of study, we used interactive writing to write what we learned together.  We spelled to and can from our memory and sounded out the other words on chart paper.

We used PebbleGo to learn about these amazing amphibians.  Some of the students studied other amphibians to extend their knowledge.

Respond with Fine Motor Life Cycle

We used paper tearing to create the life cycle of the frog.  They make an amazing display!
