This resource is available at the TPT store:
By learning the verbs connected to these actions, students acquire
language that is immediately relevant to their own lives. Using frogs in
routine actions gives a fun, visual, and playful twist to learning
The flashcards
encourage students to build simple sentences such as “The frog is playing the
piano”.
Have the students
act it out like the frog! Show the flashcards to reinforce the meaning without
translating.
Teacher: The frog is reading.
Place the frog flashcards
in different routines on the board. Place
a paper on each card with a number. Students call out a number and then describe
it in order to win the card: “The frog is eating ice cream!”
Use a spinner with
pictures of the frogs in action. Students spin and then do the action or say
the sentence using the flashcard. Assemble by using a butterfly pin and a clip.
These cards are
perfect for playing the Fly Swatter Game — a high-energy vocabulary
review activity. Display several frog
routine cards on the board or table. Call out a routine verb (e.g., The frog is
playing basketball). Two students race
to swat the correct card with a fly swatter. The first to swat the right frog
wins the round!
Pocket charts
cards. Give half the class a picture card and the other
half a word card. Students walk around
the room and find their match. Once
matched, they come to the pocket chart and place their pair together.
Game boards! Players roll a die and move their token
forward. They land on a frog doing a routine action. They
must say the verb or sentence: The frog is eating!
If they say it correctly, they stay—if not,
go back one space or try again.
