In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat. This is a demonstration that would involve a volunteer dressing like a frog to show the various adaptations but can be adapted for small groups of learners. Ribbit not included.
