A NICE MEMORY FOR PARENTS! Students draw streaks of color, starting center and drawing to the outer edge, on a coffee filter with watercolor markers. Then fold the filter in half 4 times. Dip the point of the folded filter into a bowl of water so the colors bleed upward. Unfold the filter and let it dry on wax paper. Then cut the turkey body from a traced foot (teacher traces) of the student, on brown construction paper. Glue the foot to the dried filter. Decorate with feet, a beak, eyes, and a wattle. Make sure the student's name and year is on the body. Every time a parent see it, they will think, 'was my child's foot ever that small?'Lots of projects, actvities, and ideas.
