Thankful Turkey added

A bulletin board that says,
"WE ARE THANKFUL FOR OUR FRIENDS". You could make a large
turkey for the bulletin board and one day in circle time have a discussion
on why they are thankful for their friends. Write each of their
responses on a separate turkey feather and when you have them all
written down, put the feathers on the turkey. Make colorful
construction paper turkey feathers with a strip of white paper on
them to write each child's response. I do the same thing except I just
entitle it "WE ARE THANKFUL FOR..." and the children tell
me what they are thankful for and I write their responses on the
feathers.

I make a turkey using a
brown paper bag cut into a circle and crumpled into a ball then
flattened. I make a head out of fun foam and put on a gobble and
wiggle eyes. I have each child trace each of their hands and put them
behind the head and body to form the feathers. We usually name the
turkey each year by having each child vote on which name they want
then voting for the most popular. When the holiday is done then we
remove the hands and put them together to make a friendship wreath.
The kids enjoy making this board together and it turns out great each
year.
Thankful

For Thanksgiving. In big letters across the bulletin board spell out We
Are Thankful For....... Ask your class about the things they are thankful
for and let them help you cut pictures of items they are thankful for out
of magazines. I use a picture of a large turkey for the center piece
and border it with fall leaves. The background can be any fall color.
Happy
Thanksgiving!

Asked each child to bring in one his/her dad's old ties. (We got some
really "far out" contributions.) Take each tie and stretch out
as the turkey's tail feathers. Attach to bulletin board paper. (We used
yellow.) Then add a large turkey head view cut out. Ours was very colorful
and laminated for durability.
Beside each tie "feather" the contributing child wrote what
he/she was thankful for. We titled our bulletin "door" Turkey
Ti(e)me!
