- Turkey in the Straw: The "Straws" were placed over a "Pond". The "Turkey" sat on top of the "Straw." Each child chose a straw one at a time. The child whose straw caused the turkey to fall then had to stand up and gobble.
- Duck, Duck, "Turkey": The Turkey had to Gobble while chasing.
- Male Turkeys have the BIG Beautiful feathers. We looked at many pictures of turkeys. We could all tell the difference between the male and female.
- Turkeys make lots of different sounds: Purr, Cluck, Gobble, Putt, Yelp, Cutt, Kee-Kee. We listened to examples of all of them. It was cute to hear the kiddos compare what they heard to other animal noises. For example, as we were listening to the yelp, Nathan E. said, "That is a dog in trouble!"
- Turkeys have waddles
- Turkeys are the most popular bird in the US. Ben Franklin wanted the turkey to be our National bird.
