Begin by painting the back of a paper plate green, so that the turtle ends up with a rounded shell. Let the paint dry completely.

While the paint dries, punch some large circles out of the green cardstock. You will need 3 total for the head, arms, and legs as well as some for the shell.

Now, take 3 green circles. Leave one intact and cut the other two in half.

Glue the full circle to the top of the paper plate.

Then, glue the half circles around the plate for arms and legs.

Add googly eyes.

Finally, glue the remainder of the circles onto the paper plate shell in a pattern of your choice.
