1st Grade makes clay and pinecone turkeys
It was not very messy and everyone was able to do these turkeys with just a little help. We used pinecones that had opened just a little but still had pointy ends for the head. First we made the feathery tails from a paper plate and drew our own feathers and colored them. Using the homemade clay in brown, yellow and red we created the head, comb, beak and goblers and pressed them on. We glued the tail to the body, some needed a bit of a splint or cushion between the tail and cone to seat them. Of course most of the students have not seen live turkeys but these are a pretty good representation anyway.
