Turkey Story Time: November 21-22, 2016

Books:
10 Turkeys in the Road by Brenda Reeves Sturgis
I'm a Turkey! by Jim Arnosky *
A Plump and Perky Turkey by Teresa Bateman
Run, Turkey, Run! by Diane Mayr *
Turkey Day by Grace Maccarone

Craft: Paper Plate Turkey
Children colored a small paper plate before gluing on a beak, waddle and eyes to the center of the plate.  They then glued on orange, yellow, and red feathers to the back of the plate to finish the turkeys.  They could then either write their name on the feathers of things they were thankful for.

Literacy Extensions:
- After reading Run Turkey Run!, have your child come up with how they would avoid becoming Thanksgiving dinner if they were a turkey.
- Ask your child what things they think of when you say Thanksgiving (i.e. types of food, parade, football, pilgrims, etc.)
