I know what you’re thinking…what’s a nearly new beginner? Previously, I shared lesson plans for brand new readers (which you can view here but this time, we’re taking it up a notch, and I’ll be sharing lesson plans for NEARLY new beginners.
#KINDERGARTEN LESSON PLANS SERIES#
In this post, I’m going to share the second week of lesson plans from the 3-part series we’ve got going on here at Reading Simplified.

Here’s a video with the song + lyrics, and if you want to incorporate movements with this song, this video might give you some ideas.Do you love getting free lesson plans as much as I do? It happened somehow,Īnd you can see … You can see … I’m a frog NOW! I wiggle my tail… “Hey! What happened to my tail?” Then, gradually, gradually… I grew some arms! (or I grew my front legs!) Then, gradually, gradually… I grew some legs!Ī tadpole! A tadpole! A young pollywog in an old foggy bog,Īnd maybe, someday, I’ll grow up to be … a real live FROG! If you’re a little tadpole, the fun never ends I’m just a little tadpole, swimming with my friends I changed two of the verses around to portray the right stage order ( which you will see reflected on my version of the song below): Something that stands out about this song, however, is that they got the process of how a tadpole turns into a frog wrong! This should be the order: first it's a tadpole, then it gets its back legs, then it gets its front legs and then it's tail gradually disappears. The concepts are not very complicated for preschool through first grade the song talks about the process of a tadpole turning into a frog.
It ended up being a story song and they really liked it! I actually wasn't quite sure if it was gonna be a big hit with my students because I thought it might be too wordy. Because it is a longer song (wordy), it's more of a listening song at the preschool and kindergarten age.
This is a song that at a lot of elementary music teachers use, especially in second or third grade, from the musical Swamped!. Here are the songs for the Frog music lesson plan and a quick break down of how I use them! However, this Frog Lesson Plan features one of my most popular original movement songs, “ Move It, Move It!” which you can find on Spotify, Amazon Music or your favorite music streaming platform. The Frog Music Lesson Plan for preschool and kindergarten music time is no exception to what I described above! As opposed to the majority of the lesson plans in the Community, where the lesson plans specifically include my original songs written around a theme with different developmental, SEL and academic goals in mind, this music lesson plan includes traditional or popular songs. Most of the lesson plans inside of the Music For Kiddos Community library and all of the preschool & kindergarten music lesson plans found in our Top 5 Lesson Plan Bundle are examples of that preference such as the “ Sweets Lesson Plan”, the “ Rainbow Lesson Plan”, the “ Space Lesson Plan” and the “ Bear Lesson Plan” ( the latter two can also be found here).
I love creating preschool and kindergarten music lesson plans and something that I’ve found I thoroughly enjoy in the process is naming them with one-word titles that encompass the lesson plan’s theme.
