Our Irregular Centerpiece

My school has a big Thanksgiving feast each year. Parents are invited and teachers are encouraged to make decorations with the students. We decided to make a turkey centerpiece using styrofoam balls and construction paper feathers. I gave my 3rd graders irregular verb cards and had them write the words on the paper feathers (present tense on one side, past tense on the other). Add a little paint, hot glue, and a clay beak and we had one adorable little turkey!
