These turtles are found nesting along the coastline of more than 80 countries, with the largest nesting populations found in Costa Rica and Australia.

Green sea turtles spend most of their lives underwater, where they can rest for up to five hours at a time before coming up for air. When active, they typically alternate between being underwater for a few minutes and coming up to the surface to breathe air for a few seconds. Green sea turtles are also known to sunbathe on land.

Unlike most other sea turtles, adult green sea turtles eat a primarily plant-based diet consisting of seaweed and sea grass. Scientists believe these green foods give the sea turtle's fat its green color. The shell of the green sea turtle is usually shades of a brown or olive color.

Similar to other sea turtles, green sea turtles migrate long distances between their feeding grounds and their nesting sites, with recorded distances longer than 1,615 miles (2,600 kilometers). They have strong paddlelike flippers that help propel them through the water.

Female green sea turtles leave the water in order to lay eggs on the beach and will choose the same nesting spot as where they were born. A female will dig out a nest with her flippers and lay a clutch of about 115 eggs. Then she'll cover the eggs with sand and return to the sea. After about two months, the babies will use a special "egg tooth" to break their shells and hatch from their eggs.

The first few years of a green sea turtle's life are spent floating at sea, where they feed on plankton. As they grow older, the turtles move to shallow waters along the coast, such as bays and lagoons, where they find sea grass to eat.

Adult green sea turtles face many threats, primarily from humans, including injuries from boat propellers, being caught in fishing nets, pollution, and poaching. Newly hatched sea turtles are also at risk of being hunted by animals such as birds, crabs, and raccoons as they move from their nests out to the sea.

Green sea turtles are the world's largest species of hard-shelled sea turtle. While most individuals weigh about 300 to 400 pounds (136 to 181 kilograms), some can be as heavy as 440 pounds (204 kilograms). These turtles are found nesting along the coastline of more than 80 countries, with the largest nesting populations found in Costa Rica and Australia.

Reading The Rainbow Fsh by Marcus Pfister

# data[].attributes.body
The story is about a beautiful, shiny fish called Rainbow Fish, who loves his metallic scales and doesn't want to share them. As a result, the other fish avoid him, and he becomes lonely. Seeking advice from his only friend, the starfish, he is directed to a wise octopus in a cave. The octopus advises him to share his scales. Although difficult, Rainbow Fish realizes sharing is necessary for friendship.

After leaving the cave, a blue fish asks for one of his scales. Rainbow Fish gives him one and sees how happy it makes the blue fish, which in turn makes Rainbow Fish happy. He then shares his scales with other fish, spreading happiness among all.

Moral: sharing is caring, sharing can bring happiness to yourself and others. Selfishness makes you lose friends.

The teacher prepares all materials in advance and has everything set up, including pre-cutting tentacles and arms, to facilitate engaging conversations and assistance during the craft. The learners are encouraged to color coffee filters as they wish, noting the excitement as colors blend with water from a pipette. Once dry, learners select and attach tentacles using glue or tape, with options for using various decorative ribbons. After stuffing and stapling the filters together securely, a ribbon is added for hanging the completed jellyfish. The jellyfish are very fun to hang on the ceilings.
