Perfect for Middle School
Students learn patience and precision by cutting open the frog with no visible blood and click on the organs and learn about them. Bonus with interactive games!

Amazing!
Shocking
Excellent
Love more apps just like this one.
Wonderful
Please make one for earthworms or another simple animal.
Fantastic
Great app, but too many updates!
Aside from that, a very cool app. Well done!
Educational and fun
Fabulous for Science
If you are at all interested in incorporating a study of frogs into your science studies this year, you won’t want to miss Frog Dissection. SO much more than dissection is included in the app (though that of course, is really neat!) While much of the anatomical information is written at a junior to senior high level, even my young children like to dissect the frog – the audio instructions make it easy, watch the videos, and explore the interactive activities.
This is a very comprehensive app when it comes to frogs. I learned quite a bit about them that I never knew before. There is really a wealth of information included in this app, you could easily use it as the core of a frog unit study. I love how it provides a ‘hands-on’ experience to help cement learning by dissecting the frog step-by-step and through the ability to rotate the organs, slide through the life cycle, and interact with the digestive and respiratory system.
The art and videos are all very well done – the frog isn’t lifelike enough to REALLY give you the willies while it’s being dissected, and neither are the organs – they’re all obviously computer generated, but…that can be a good thing sometimes! Everything in this app is very professionally presented – it’s just top notch.
When I showed my mother (still homeschooling my little brother) this app, she was amazed. She’s been considering buying an iPad and this app alone almost threw her over the edge – it’s that good.
What We Didn’t Like:
Not a dislike necessarily, but it would be nice if the app was set up for multiple users in the quiz section (it keeps track of scores, but if you have several children it can’t differentiate between them). Also, some sort of search function would be very helpful for looking up specific information about frogs within the app.
Overall:
If dissecting a frog is part of the requirements for your students in high school biology – this app will save you the trouble of hunting down a stinky dead frog for a lab. Even if your children don’t NEED to dissect a frog and just want to learn more about frog anatomy, live cycles, or anatomy, you’ll want to buy Frog Dissection.
