Divide the following pairings among the people in your group:
egg & tadpole
egg & froglet
tadpole & tadpole with legs
tadpole & frog
tadpole with legs & frog
egg & froglet
tadpole & tadpole with legs
tadpole & frog
tadpole with legs & frog
egg & tadpole with legs
egg & frog
tadpole & froglet
tadpole with legs & froglet
froglet & frog
egg & frog
tadpole & froglet
tadpole with legs & froglet
froglet & frog
Each team member should make a Venn diagram comparing and contrasting the stages in each pairing. Look at similarities and differences in features of the frogs at those stages, where they live, what they eat, etc. Write at least two things in each section of the Venn diagram. Make sure to label the circles with the stages.
When everyone is done, present your findings to your team. Bring your Venn diagrams to the teacher so she can send your comparisons to the head scientist!
