Peter Pritchard has seen each of the world's 300 species of turtles, but has a real affinity for the giant leatherback sea turtles on a Guyana beach. His conservation efforts with a local community insure that children learn about the turtles' habitats, behaviors, and characteristics. Watch a turtle lay her eggs and see the newly hatched babies race for the sea. Gives additional pertinent facts about this ancient species.
My deaf students are reading the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen and in the book, a turtle lays eggs in the sand. This film about sea turtles really gave them visual reinforcement of this fascinating part of nature. They were totally engaged. The filming is excellent, captions are good and the conservation message is compelling.
