Today for Science, we spent some with Speedy, our visiting turtle. We made some observations, then predictions, and then more observations. Mrs. Anderson helped with the lesson. The students enjoyed getting up close to Speedy. They checked out his markings, his eyes, nose, tail, and even counted his toenails! What great Scientists! Speedy is a Yellow Bellied Turtle- check him out online.
I tried to take some pictures of the observation groups, in between working with the rest. I know I didn’t get everyone’s picture but here are a few.
