Using the News in the Classroom: Chocolate Frog Found in New Guinea




Using the News in the Classroom.

In a swamp on the island of New Guinea, scientists have found a yummy species of frog. The frog, about 3 inches long, is chocolate colored and has been named the “chocolate frog”. Found in crocodile infested waters, the  frog with big black eyes is actually called Litoria mira(“surprised” or “strange” in the language of Latin) and is related to the green tree frog native to Australia. 

1. Pretend you are a chocolate frog and tell about a day in your life.
