Frogs are an amazingly diverse group of animals. How did all this diversity arise? We will explore this question by looking at the physical characteristics of frogs drawn from the Harvard Museum of Comparative Zoology Herpetology Collection. After looking for traits that give frogs survival advantages in their environments, we will investigate the process through which these frogs came to have their particular forms. This lesson is intended for students in grades 6–8. Suitable also for grades 3–5 in modified form.
