So since I am a science teacher I decided I would bring one of my russian torts to my classroom for a class pet. My students love having him in our room and enjoy having him be apart of our learning experience. I have taught them all the difference between turtles and tortoises and they are learning how to care for pets responsibly.
I went over a safety contract and had each student sign it. I have also set up data collection sheets for students to record the temperature, his activity, what he was fed etc. everyday in class. If there are any other teachers out there consider doing this if even just having your pet visit for the day.
