Summer Programming off to a good start
Today we read "Yertle the Turtle" by none other than Dr. Seuss! Each week we are focusing on animals that find a home in Tennessee. This week was all about Turtles.
A great resource for Tennessee Wildlife is:
Tennessee Watchable Wildlife
Children also learned a little about empathy. Especially for poor Mack who found himself shouldering the load at the bottom of the turtle stack.
