Mr. Puddles!


A pet turtle is a new addition to the art room this year.  A “naming contest” was initiated at the start of the school year.  A few hundred name suggestions where crammed into a box by K-4th grade students.  Their where many creative names that where given to the turtle.  Some of the more creative names include: Art Man, Shelldon, Swimmerson, and Mr. Proctor Jr.  From all the names given I chose Emma Dykrop’s suggestion of Mr. Puddles.  Here is Emma Dyrkop from Mrs. Tibben’s 4th grade classroom receiving her certificate of naming.  Mr. Puddles is a 2-year old male red-eared slider that enjoys taking long swims by the beach and eating an occasional rock or two.
