FREE MISC. LESSON – “Turkey Craft for Phonics or Math”

by First in Florida

Pre-Kindergarten – 3rd Grade

This is a super simple craft freebie that I threw together. All you need to do is select which version you want (phonics, math, or blank), cut construction paper down to 8.5 by 11, and print.

I have my students cut the pieces because we ALL know they need that fine motor practice.

This is my “OMG it’s like my students can smell Thanksgiving break!” remedy.

Plus, if you make it related to the standards, then the craft is justifiable all day long to any admin! “Oh look, they are APPLYING their knowledge of the standard and it’s differentiated!” 😉

I hope it helps you get through the next couple of days before Thanksgiving break like it does for me.
