Materials
How to Set it Up
1
Cut out a turkey head from the brown foam, a waddle from the orange foam, and a beak from the red foam.
2
Use the double-sided tape to layer them together to form a turkey. Tape one googly eye on.
3
Attach one turkey head to the outside of each of the glass jars. Repeat steps 1-3 so that you end up with three turkey jars.
4
Fill the jars with pom-poms.
5
Set up a sheet of paper and pencil to write the estimation and results down.
How to Use the Jars
1
Estimate how many pom-poms are in each jar. Write your answer down on the paper.
2
Take the pom-poms out and count.
3
Record the results. Were you close? Fill the jars with new amounts of pom-poms to play again!
