P1/2 had a special visitor in class today to help us learn our new sound ‘t’….. Tillie the tortoise! We learned lots of new information and some of us were brave enough to hold her.
We learned….
-Tillie was the size of a 50p when she was born.
-She is 12 years old but may live to over 100 years old!

-Tillie hibernates for 3 months in the winter and sleeps in the fridge.

-She has a warm bath each morning to keep her warm and clean.
-She loves cucumber, kale and carrots to eat.
-She soaks up water through her shell to keep hydrated.
