FOOT TURKEY SUNCATCHER

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?'
