At the Discovery Desk

At the aquarium discovery desk, Nia tests a toy turtle, not a live animal. She slides it on a flat mat marked with squares. Each test starts at the same line. She uses the same turtle and mat. She gives one short push or one short pull with a ribbon, then lets go. She changes how hard she pushes or pulls. She counts how many squares the turtle travels before stopping.
