Homecoming

Homecoming is this week for my school. 
We are a self contained k-12 public school, which presents some advantages and disadvantages.  We only have one principal and one vice principal for the entire school- which can be trying to have our "elementary" problems compare to "high school" problems.  But at the same, it does allow our community to remain tight knit and I am able to see "my kids" (former students) daily as they grow up and graduate. 
ANYWAY...as I said, Homecoming is this week and we made eagles to encourage our team...the Eagles!



Sooo...Go Eagles!  I would be happy to post a pattern if anyone else is an eagle or has a need...it is essentially a brown bowling pin shape, brown hand cut-outs, and then the kids tear up white paper and glue to the head.  Add orange beak, orange talons, google eyes and call it a day...you're done! lol

Anybody else having Homecoming this week?

  2. We're eagles too! I would love it if you could post a pattern! Thanks so much. They turned out so cute. This week my class earned our school eagle with his treasured golden pine cone. :) I'm sure they would love to make their own version of him!
