This project uses the same drawing technique that I posted about here, but is drawn in a large format (about 12" x 18") and painted with tempera paint. I let the students finish the feathers in whatever manner they wished – either realistic or with fun patterns. My goal was to have them practice their radial drawing with the feather lines that went out from the body. I compared it to the lines that radiate out from the sun, which most students seemed to grasp, even the 1st graders.

I don't have a lot up yet, but I am trying to post some of my most developed units first. Look for some lessons inspired by you soon! :-)
Even though this is not the first time I see a turkey on your blog, I think it is such a wonderful design.
Using Tempera is so cool!
