  Then, you will make a copy of the pattern for each student.
  
  After that, you will pass out a piece of brown construction paper for each student.
  
  Next, you will have the students cut out the pattern and have them glue their turkeys to the brown construction paper.
  
  Then, they can take small cotton balls for the body and long strips of brown felt (for the tail feathers) and glue them on their turkeys.

  You can collect their papers when they have finished and put them up on the wall during the month of November.
