We started off by reading about turkeys. Can I just say is tough to find grade level appropriate non-fiction book about turkeys. I have fiction stories up the wazoo (I especially love Turkey Surprise which sneaks in a few turkey facts) but zero non-fiction. So the hunt was on. Three bookstores and a libraries later, I still had no books, and then I stumbled onto kidzone.ws.It was full of great info that I put into a little book to read to my kids complete with pictures! If you are in need click the pic below!
And today we finished up turkeys with a turkey of course!
The glue was still drying as I left school today, so they will make their way onto the windows Monday morning!If you are interested in the turkey pattern, comment and I'll post it!
Enjoy your long weekend... I know I will!
Update: Here is the Turkey Pattern! Enjoy!

Love this turkey pattern! I also love the way you pulled in nonfiction about turkeys. It's true, I have lots of fiction but it's hard to find nonfiction on a first grade level! Thanks for sharing! I'd love to have the turkey pattern if you don't mind posting it! Thanks!
I also love this turkey pattern and would love a copy of it. I am actually on a hunt for a turkey writing project and this one is perfect! I also enjoyed the website you recommended above! Please post the pattern if you don't mind :)

I've spent almost 30 years teaching firsties and have never seen this cute turkey pattern before. What I like most about it is it won't take a bottle of glue and all afternoon for the kids to complete lol. I'd really appreciate it if you'd post the pattern. Thank you for sharing this great idea.
So glad you all like the craft as much as I do! You can find the pattern here:
