After doing our Five Speckled Frogs song and activity, I left the frogs and log on the easel. One morning, I watched Sweet Pea play with the frogs as I was getting ready to start school. Watching her gave me the idea to use the frogs and log to work on spatial concepts. (Spatial concepts are taught in the 3 Year and 4 Year Curriculum.)
Upon calling out a spatial word, she placed the frogs according to the log. The sticky tack on the back of each frog made them easy for her to move around.

Have another idea of teaching spatial concepts? Would love to hear your idea!
