Today Dilara and I were talking about dolphins and watched some videos of dolphins swimming around. We talked about the difference between mammals that live in the sea, and fish. We have a box full of 'nature stuff"--an intact garter snakeskin shed in my backyard, the dried flower pods from Magnolia and Sweet Gum trees, and a bunch of different types of shells, a sandollar and a starfish, and some dead cicadas and their cast-of larval cases. We have a great fish store nearby called "The Aquatic Critter" where we can see many ocean creatures, alive, in their aquariums. They often have stingrays and sometimes have seahorses. They also have a section of the store called "The Reptile Room" which is full of snakes, lizards, and they even have a big tank of caimans--SCARY!
I sorted all the sea life items, which also included a realistic looking plastic crab and put them in their own shoebox.
I remember a short show called "Seahouse" which used to be on our local PBS station. I checked and found some of the videos on youtube.
I am open to suggestions on how to connect this to Turkey. I'll add to this post later.
