How do scientists learn about animals?
● They study them● They research their needs● They compare animals● They look at their environments
or biomes● They try to build similar habitats
so they will survive.

*Land (terrestrial)
*Water (aquatic)

What kind of environments do amphibians live in?
❖ Remember, amphibian means “double-life”
❖ Amphibians have smooth, moist skin & die if they dry out
❖ They lay gelatin-like eggs ❖ They first have gills and then
grow lungs!

Aquatic dwarf frogs1. What do you observe?2. What can you infer?

What type of aquatic enviornment?
❏ Salt water or fresh water?
❏ What is in water?❏ How can we help them
survive?❏ How much space do
they need?

Let’s Build It!
What qualitative and quantitative characteristics do we need?Qualitative: Describe using shape, color, size, characteristics
Quantitative: Describe using measurement, units, or any quantity (number)

Consider This:
1. What amount of water do they need?2. What type of water?3. How many frogs per container?4. What will they eat?5. How will they protect themselves?6. What will happen to their waste?

Freshwater Habitat
1. What is the capacity of the container?2. How will we consider space for the animals?3. What will happen if there is a high population (or dense population)?4. How much food do they need to survive?5. How can we tell if the water is the right temperature?

Building it:
1. Gravel: holds waste and allows them to burrow.2. Elodea allows them to eat vegetation and camouflage themselves.3. Why is camouflage important?4. How else can we help them survive?
