Use materials you may find at home to create a paper plate turtle! Please gather the following supplies: paper plate, tissue paper, glue/glue stick, scissors, markers, construction paper, paint brush and googly eyes if you have them.

Step 1: Rip or cut out pieces of tissue paper and glue them onto the middle of the paper plate with either a paint brush or with your glue stick. 

Step 2: Draw out a turtle head, feet and tail, cut it out and glue it to the sides of the plate.

Step 3: Draw a face on the turtle head using markers or googly eyes.
