My compass

This is a magnet. I used it to make my compass.

I took a needle and rubbed it against
this red and blue thing! You put a piece of cork under the needle then put it on a plate and put water in the plate and....................................................YOU DID IT! The needle points to the north!

Common Toad


In the park there is a lake, in the lake there are a million frogs. Frogs everywhere and they're mating too!


A frog can stay under water for an incredibly long time. I wanted to catch one but I stayed there almost ten minutes!


In this froggy group the female is the biggest and the male is on her back! If I were a frog I would be glad that my back bones did not fall out!
