41. Amphibian Alert! Education Program - Sedgwick County Zoo Amphibian Alert! This downloadable curriculum aims to teach children what amphibians are and why amphibian population declines are important to scientists http://www.scz.org/amphibian_alert.html

Dear Educator - Amphibian Alert! This downloadable curriculum aims to teach children what amphibians are and why amphibian population declines are important to scientists and communities throughout the world. The amphibian decline dilemma represents an outstanding opportunity for educators to introduce into the classroom a real-world problem that is being addressed by science. You need not be a science specialist to teach the Amphibian Alert! curriculum. Amphibian Alert! was developed, produced, and distributed with major funding from the Environmental Protection Agency. Kits were distributed to AZA accredited zoos throughout the United States. The kits included some multimedia tools not available on this site. You might check with your local AZA zoo, as they may be able to loan materials to classrooms. What are the characteristics of amphibians? What characteristics put them at risk? What is happening to amphibian populations worldwide? Why should we be concerned, and what can we do?

Frogs,Toads Salamanders ,and Newts Frogs and toads are the most common amphibians.The adults have bulging eyes,a squat body,and no tail.Frogs have smooth skin and long powerful back legs with webbed feet for jumping and swimming.They normally live in or near water.Toads have a dry,warty skin and shorter legs with less webbing between the toes.They prefer to live on land,except during breeding.You can find both Toads and Frogs around water.They like Swamps,Creeks,streams,Canals,lakes or any place with water.They do not need to be aqautic to like water.Some Toads are Semi-aquatic.Mosquitos and other insects and bugs are attracted to water,So Frogs and Toads go where the food is abundant. Did you know frogs breath through their skin as well as their lungs! To learn more fun facts Check out the page on Frog Fun Facts! Frog Books 2 Extremly Weird Frogs Why is this Frog smiling?

Collaborative Thematic Unit Theme: Reptiles and Amphibians by Mike Seagle and John Geanangel Grade Level Upper Primary (2nd and 3rd) The theme of this unit, "Reptiles and Amphibians," is especially appropriate for children of this level because they are fascinated with animals and are often highly motivated to explore their immediate environment. Focus: The overall purpose of this interdisciplinary, thematic unit of study is to help students learn more about the distinct characteristics of reptiles and amphibians, including an emphasis on the metamorphosis and development of amphibians. The students will accomplish this through becoming involved in a number of interdisciplinary lessons and activities. The length of this unit can be adjusted according to the specific needs of the classroom. The students will have experiences in caring for animals, and they will have opportunities to express themselves through creative work in art, writing, music, and movement activities. General Objectives On completion of this unit, the students will:

Amphibians Ribbit! In this BrainPOP movie Tim and Moby teach you the history and biology of amphibians, those crawly-jumpy creatures that includes frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts. Discover why amphibians hold a special place in vertebrate history (hint: it has to do with their landlubber ways!) and find out how they manage to spend their lives in two very different types of environments. Most importantly, you’ll be introduced to the various types of amphibians, which differ quite a bit in terms of body type and lifestyle. They won’t teach you how to catch flies like frogs, though - you’re on your own with that! show_flash("http://brainpop.speedera.net/www.brainpop.com/science/diversityoflife/amphibians/screenshot.swf",329,246,""); About BrainPOP BrainPOP en Espa±ol BrainPOP Jr. - K-3 Movies, Homework Help, Games for Kids ...

Wehrle's salamander Ohio's Amphibians Compared with game animals, fish, and birds, amphibians are a largely ignored form of wildlife. When they are noticed, they are often regarded as slimy, ugly creatures of no consequence, with the possible exception of their use as fish bait. But many of these typically shy, secretive animals are surprisingly colorful and interesting. Although a few amphibians are relatively large and unblessed with good looks, most are small, delicately attractive, and brightly colored. The fact that some of these more vulnerable species survive at all is cause for wonder. About 360 million years ago amphibians were the first creatures to emerge from the seas to begin life on land. The term amphibian comes from the Greek amphi, which means dual, and bios, meaning life. Many amphibians do live a double life-spending part of their lives in water and the rest on land-but some never go into the water and others never leave it. All amphibians are cold-blooded animals with a moist glandular skin which is capable of absorbing oxygen into the body. Unlike reptiles, their skin is not scaly and they do not have claws on their toes. Most amphibians prefer to come out at night.
