The frog looks fun. It's a nice animal to work with. I don't know the exact assignment but you could try different positions of the frog on the paper. Have you ever heard of the golden ratio? This could be of great use on this one.
You did well for a first try on watercolors. Those tend to be all blurry and just go all over the place. Use a tissue to absorb all the extra water the next time you try watercolors. All you need is a lot more practise.

I hope I can explain that properly... If not you could try asking your math teacher.
The acient greek build everything with a certain distance. Every little thing was messured and matched. What I tried to suggest is moving the object (the frog in this case) slightly more to one side. This is easier to look at.
Golden ratio is well explained on wikipedia. You will know what I'm talking about when you look at the sketches.
