Question Question! Frog/Toad Identification

Recently i just found some small black tadpoles outside my house in Iowa. These tadpoles grew legs and are now living on land. They are really small(about 1/2") and most are black, but some are more of a greenish tint. On some i can see little yellow spots on their back. Can anyone identify these for me. I dont know if they are toads or frogs. I will try to get some pictures as soon as i can. Any help would be appreciated.
