Mystery Science: Why Do Frogs Say "Ribbit"?
This Mystery is a case study in biodiversity using the frogs of North America.
In the activity, Who’s Calling?, students learn to identify frogs by their unique calls and investigate which of two locations has a greater variety of frogs. After listening to recordings of frog calls, students create words that will remind them of the sounds, and then use those words to identify frog sounds in different environments.
