Why Teachers ❤️ It!
Teachers can easily differentiate this activity to meet their students' needs, allowing them to write sentences, a paragraph, or even multiple paragraphs depending on their level.
My students worked on these essays right before our holiday break, keeping them engaged and learning until the very end. However, many teachers have used this project earlier in the month, displaying students' writing for parent conferences.
The best part? Students love making these thankful turkeys! You'll find yourself using it year after year.
