Some full-color pictures + copy-ready patterns and step-by-step directions for each project are included.
These projects all involve many of your report card standards, so children are learning and reinforcing much-needed math, writing, and science concepts while enjoying hands-on art.
“Craftivities” are a great way to help increase listening and following direction skills, as well as cutting and other fine motor skills.
Use as gifts, bulletin boards, hallway and classroom decorations or for portfolios.
Some of the finished projects look wonderful dangling from the ceiling; others, you can use as educational manipulatives, like the color-counting turkey, or the paper chain turkey that helps reinforce a color pattern, as well as subtraction, as you countdown to Thanksgiving Day.
Many make great keepsakes for parents. Some of the projects include songs and poems to reinforce those concepts.
I hope you and your students have a simply turkey-riffic time as you create and learn at the same time.
