K/1 Bird Puppets

The K/1s are creating tagboard articulated puppets with flapping wings in conjunction with their classroom bird study. Working from a photo of the bird they're investigating, they are accurately coloring their puppet to look like their particular bird. The body and wings are cut out, the wings attached with brass fasteners, and a string tied to the back to allow the wings to flap up and down.
