Turtle races are always a great way for the kids to learn how to cheer one another on. Each child made their own turtle and then we raced them by rolling string onto a toilet paper roll. This was a good activity for developing small motor control and learning how to be a good sport. The goal was to cross the finish line and it didn't matter if they were first or last as long as they made it to the end. We will continue to reinforce being slow but sure in our classroom work and making sure we cross the finish line even if we aren't the first one done.
