English Language Arts Literature Circles (by date, oldest first)

Use this activity to sequence the events in There was an Old Lady who Swallowed a Turkey. Each event is pictured on a turkey feather that, when completed, creates an adorable turkey that sequences the story. Print on cardstock to make it more durable or mat it on a large piece of construction paper. Students will color and cut out the turkey feathers and body, glue them together, and have a great "craftivity" that tells what happens in this adorable book.

This is included in my sequencing activity bundle available here.

FIVE sequencing crafts for five of my favorite Old Lady stories!
