Turkey activity and craft

Ellison machine

Turkey

Skill: letter matching

  Reinforce letter matching with this fun Thanksgiving activity. Attach a simple turkey body cutout to a wall. Then label pairs of construction paper feathers with matching letters and place the feathers on the floor. Invite a volunteer to choose a feather and then look for its match. When he finds the matching feather, prompt students to jump up and strut around the room while gobbling like turkeys. Then help the child attach both feathers to the turkey. Repeat the process for each remaining pair of feathers. For a different skill option, program pairs of feathers with matching uppercase and lowercase letters. Tell us what you think about this idea! 






CRAFT:

Skill: Science, small motor, and geometry


 All you need is some leaves, one large circle and a small circle for the turkey and glue.  You will need some paper to be able to glue your turkey together.
