My daughter has a turtle from school for the week. The teacher only provides food. How do we care for it?

Hello, thank you for using PetCoach. Tau appears to be a red-eared slider (RES). He shouldn't need too much in the way of care (other than food) if you are only going to have him for a week. Here is a link to a RES care sheet. This may help to answer any questions you may have. Hope this helps. Best wishes!
