Save the Turkeys!

Poor turkeys don’t want to be eaten on Thanksgiving, so Division 9 students were given the task of disguising their turkey! Using anything they could find around home, they dressed their turkeys so that they wouldn’t be found and put on the table for Thanksgiving dinner.

The turkeys are now safely hidden in our classroom. *whew!*
