Tiddalik



Tiddalik the Frog is an excellent story to use when learning about water conservation. It is also a great Dreamtime story to read to students when teaching them about Aboriginal culture.




There are a couple of different versions, and you can watch one of them here on youtube: 

 


A fun activity Kindergarten undertook after learning about Tiddalik, was this craft activity:



 



Students were provided a frog template photocopied on green cardboard (I found this one in a google search). Then, using a single hole puncher, they punched holes around the outline of the frog. Afterwards, students weaved colourful string in and out of the holes. To add further decoration, they threaded beads onto the string.
