1. Teacher will give each student 2 paper plates to paint.

2. Teacher or students will dribble a small amount of paint onto their plates. (avoid too many that will make muddy colors). I let mine dry and dry-brush on plate along the outside ridges with brown so my "feathers" stand out.

3. For younger students, teacher should draw or trace the attached template to one of the students plates.

4. Students will cut on the lines (if they can).

6. Teachers will instruct the students how to put the murky together by following the instructions attacher.

7. Once the turkey has been put together, students may attach there wattle, beak, and eyes.
