Save the Turkeys

Last Friday, as we were preparing for Thanksgiving break the students at Joy James Elementary started a campaign to SAVE THE TURKEYS! We read Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving by Dav Pilkey.  After visiting a turkey farm for a field trip, 8 students in the book decide to rescue the turkeys so that they don't end up as Thanksgiving dinner.


Our kids worked on creating their own turkeys that then had to persuade people to eat something else other than turkey for Thanksgiving.  They had lots of great ideas and lots of wonderful reasons. Once they finished their turkey, they used the app Chatter Kids to make their turkeys talk!
Check out a few of them here!
