frogs

okay this has nothing to do with our actual lessons but quite a coincidence.
Yesterday we went to a friends house. They live on a lake which has flooded and pretty much eaten up their backyard. They invited us over so the boys could see the tadpoles. There had to be at least 1000, and no I am not exagerating. Anyway we ended up bringing some home. I thought it would be cool to teach the boys the lyfe cycle of the frog first hand. Too little to maybe remember but it will be in there. Anyway as I was getting them I thought about the smell and just cleaning the bowl they are in regularly. I had to think again. I have city water no can do it will kill them. I ended up being able to teach a little habitat too. I got as much lake water as I could along with all the goop on the bottom. They were still alive when I left this morning.
I just thought it funny that as I was doing this kind of thing for school it happened at home.
