Can you believe it is almost turkey time? I always love spending a week teaching turkeys to my students. It is a great way to mix holidays and science together. One way I do this is by reading turkey books throughout the week. This helps students get excited about what they are learning about and even more interested in the material. Here are my 12 favorite turkey books. Are you looking for more turkey ideas, activities, and printables to do at home or in the classroom? If so click here.
