Theme of the Week: Turtles

Cadence asked to learn about turtles this week.  Did you know World Turtle Day was May 23? 

Reading:
Turtle Splash! Countdown at the Pond by Falwell

In the Small, Small Pond by Fleming


The Turtle and the Moon by Turner

Art: Make an egg carton turtle - except we decided not to use an egg carton, we used a bowl



Rhyme: This my turtle (ah, memories...I used this with my Mr. Turtle puppet at the start of every storytime)

Extra: Go to the lake on campus and look for turtles, Watch Go, Diego, Go!: Save the Sea Turtles (Season 1, Episode 16)
