My students recently received two juvenile Red Eared Slider turtles. We are in need of supplies, including a proper habitat, floating basking rock, floating feeders, turtle food, and books in order to enhance the lives of our new classroom turtles. We also have seven Black Convict Cichlids in our classroom that my students take care of, talk to, and love each day they come through the door. These items will improve my students' learning by introducing the responsibility of properly caring for living animals and ensuring their habitat has everything needed to live. My students are responsible for the care of our turtles and fish in my Science classroom by ensuring the health, happiness, and homeostatic balance of their natural habitats. They need a proper habitat, aquatic river pebbles, moss balls, and a floating basking rock to make the turtles feel like they are in their natural environment. The books will increase the basic scientific knowledge of my students while focusing on life science and ecosystems. Animal care is a great way for students to show respect for each other. Observing and caring for an animal instills a sense of responsibility and respect for life. Having this opportunity within the classroom will give my students a lifetime of memories.
