An engaging prompt that sets the stage for a hilarious Thanksgiving adventure! The star of the show? A turkey determined to escape its fate! Students will use their creativity to craft a narrative about the turkey's daring escape, the chaos it leaves behind, and the potential consequences (or maybe even a happy ending!)
Make it interesting!
- How did the turkey manage to escape the Thanksgiving dinner table?
- Describe the turkey's journey after escaping. Did it encounter any obstacles or helpful allies?
- What happens to the characters back at the Thanksgiving table? Are they surprised, disappointed, or perhaps secretly relieved?
- Will the turkey reach freedom, or will it be captured (with a twist, perhaps)?
What to do in class?
