Turkey Time and the #4


Today we took a good look at Turkeys. We now know that they don't fly too high off the ground. They peck for food like chickens, they like to roll in dirt, and that they spread their colorful feathers. We read the book, "A Plump and Perky Turkey". Then we finally painted a paper, plate very colorful, and then glued a paper turkey head and feet onto it.

For our game today, we played Turkey, Turkey, Goose.


We played button button who has the button, and then talked and looked at a bunch of different buttons. We separated the buttons into different sizes, then colors. Last we separated the buttons into 2 holes and 4 holes. We then counted out 4 buttons to each child, then glued the buttons onto our #4. For our snack we had graham crackers. I showed the children how you start with one cracker, and if you are careful, you can break it into two crackers, then into four crackers. We put those 4 crackers onto our paper napkins which we had unfolded to to make 4 squares.
