Thanksgiving Art
Leaves-orange, yellow, red, brown tempra paint. These are great for hanging up and bulletin boarders
Turkeys-brown, orange, red, yellow, purple, green and blue construction paper.Trace a turkey stencil on brown paper. Cut out the turkey and hole punch the end. Use a brad to attach the different colored wings (5-6 wings) Have the students write things they are thankful for on each of the wings.
Pilgrims- The teacher needs to draw the Pilgrims' tops and bottoms on paper. We did both girl and boys pilgrims. Then cut out pilgrims and attach parts using a brad ( so the Pilgrims can move!)
3-D Turkeys- Cut out strips of brown paper ( about 10-12 strips.) Fold out the strips to make a circle ( similar to the 3-D pumpkins above!) Then cut out head out of brown paper and add beak. Next, staple the head to the boday. Cut out the feathers out of different colored paper and then staple the feathers onto the back of the turkey.
Corn Husk Dolls- Corn husks and twine. This is best for 2nd graders and above. However, you can do it with younger kids but the adult will need to help out alot. I will attach instructions for this project.
Turkey napkin rings- Cute and useful project! The students cut out turkey heads out of brown construction paper. Then, cut out feathers out of different colored construction paper. Then, cut out brown strips of paper and wrap around a toliet paper roll. ( Also, you can use the toliet paper roll as well.) Then, glue on head and attach feathrs with a brad.
Cornucopia art project-Trace and cut out cornucopias out of brown construction paper. Cut out and glue different fruit and veggies to your picture. You can add corn, apples, grapes, squash, pumpkins etc! ( Also, you can make a collage using real pictures of food from magazines!)
