It was a beautiful and busy day at turtle cove elementary. The first day of school had come and Tilly could not be more nervous to be starting school. 

As the students and parents were hustling to classes, Tilly and her mom flew to the other side of the pond where all of her new classmates were preparing for diving class.

Tilly’s mom wished her luck and with a hug she was off. Tilly went to say hello to a nearby group of turtles in her class.

“Hi, are you guys excited to practice diving?”  

One of the turtles Remmy, turned and looked at Tilly, “What kind of turtle are you? You’re going to need all the practice you can get.”

The other turtles laughed an poked fun at her, “ You know ducks are suppose to float on the water, they can’t dive!” 

“Good morning class!”

The diving teacher greeted the class.”Today we are going to practice diving by trying to collect fourteen rings from the bottom of the pond. I know thats a lot so we are going to partner up!” 

As all the turtles started to group up Tilly asked Sheldon, “ Do you want to be partners?”

Sheldon laughed, “ I’d like to be able to get all the rings.” Sheldon turned from Tilly as he partnered with Remmy.
