"The secret of good teaching is to regard the child's intelligence as a fertile field in which seeds may be sown, to grow under the heat of flaming imagination."

"Five Green Speckled Frogs" Masks

Act out "Five Green Speckled Frogs" by using frog masks. I recently conducted a workshop in Dillon, SC and the 4K teachers made frog masks to go along with the fingerplay/song. The masks are made from felt and foam. A small piece of elastic is attached to both sides of the mask. The teachers had a ball making them and I know the children will LOVE being the 5 frogs! A BIG thanks to the 4K teachers in Dillon!


Five green speckled frogs
Frog masks can be made any color. Just change the song.
Sat on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs...yum yum!
One jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were four green speckled frogs.

Continue counting down. The last line would be:

One green speckled frog
Sat on a speckled log
Eating some most delicious bugs...yum yum!
He jumped into the pool
Where it was nice and cool
Then there were no green speckled frogs.
