Expect anything for show and tell

Well Wednesday was show and tell. Which I did forget until I discovered something in one of their cubbies. Well I went to work a few minutes early to do some paper cutting for a project we had to do.  Well  I saw in one of the cubbies a shoe box. I was thinking why in the world does he have a shoe box.  Thinking of course what comes to every ones mind. There are shoes in the shoe box. So being nosey I opened it.   Nope not shoes.  It was a Turtle.  Nice surprise for a Wednesday morning.

 

 After nap time I made everyone sit in a circle.  I then said I am going to put something on the floor do not get up and try to touch it yet. I then took it by the shell and placed it on the floor it started to crawl really fast towards the kids. That was it all the kids were screaming and running away from the turtle. I was laughing of course. I never  seen a turtle move that fast before. After we all settled down I put it on the floor again and they all watched it crawl around. They loved that turtle.  It was the highlight of the day I think. Yesterday they kept asking where the turtle was. Of course we had to give it back.  I’m going to have to get a turtle for the class room. We have fish but they are not very entertaining.
