Thanksgiving Art Project:
Materials: Brown paint, paper plate, feather
pattern, head pattern, brown,
yellow, red, and white construction paper.
Give each child one paper plate. Have them
paint it brown and let dry. Next, have students trace and cut out a
head pattern, a yellow triangle for a nose, white circles for eyes,
a red neck using the neck pattern, and yellow feet. Have them cut
out five (or any number you like) different colored feathers from a
feather pattern
Next, have students brainstorm five things
they are thankful for and write one sentence (I am thankful
for......) on each feather with a marker OR have them type
them on the computer, print them out, and cut-n-paste them to each
feather.
Assemble turkeys by gluing the head to the top
middle part of the paper plate. Feathers will be glued to plate on
the left and right side of the head. Add the triangle nose,
red neck, eyes, and two yellow feet.
With glue, write the names of each student
onto the "stomach" and use gold or rust glitter to sprinkle onto
each name.
