Turkey Cinquain Writing

A classic family homework assignment - DISGUISE YOUR TURKEY - so he doesn't get caught by the farmer! Every year I am more and more impressed with what my students come up with. Take a look for yourself!

Thanks to many generous donations to the PTA fundraiser, our class earned the most feathers on their turkey. In turn, Miss Heintz got to wear the turkey costume, and I dressed the part of the farmer.
But have no fear, I didn't make her wear it all day - we switched roles at lunchtime!
My last challenge for my little turkeys, was to get them to realize the true cost of a Thanksgiving meal. Students were given a budget of $50 and the weekly grocery store flyer. Their challenge was to see if they could "buy" a Thanksgiving feast without going over budget. You should have seen what they were serving at their dinner tables!! YUM!!
Gobble Gobble - Happy Thanksgiving 2013!!
