Turtles

Today the children learned the rhyme, "I Had a Little Turtle."
I had a little turtle
And he lived in a box.
He swam in the water
And he climbed on the rocks.
He snapped at a minnow.
He snapped at a flea.
He snapped at a mosquito.
And he snapped at me.
He caught the minnow.
He caught the flea.
He caught the mosquito.
But he didn't catch me!

  

Our read aloud today was titled 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 Turtle Splash!  This story has a turtle splashing into the pond on each page.  We used this book to work on subtracting one on our fingers.
At one of the centers today the children cut out the body of a turtle.  They then painted a section of an egg carton for its shell.  At another center the children played a roll and add turtle game.


The pictures that I took today did not load properly, but I do have a few from last week to share.
