Turkeys--a school poem for Thanksgiving


 Turkeys

All the classrooms filled with turkeys,
The week before Thanksgiving Day.
Kindergartners traced around hands.
First-graders used papier-mâché.

Grade Two stuck feathers in pine cones.
Grade Three cut out a paper plate.
Grade Four pinned gumdrops on apples.
Grade Five stuffed bags to decorate.

We loved the turkeys at our school,
So imagine how we’ll feel,
Tomorrow on Thanksgiving Day,
When we’re served turkey at our meal.
