The students were given a poem, which they read each day, several days in advance of the creation of the thank you notes to build anticipation and student familiarity with the poem. The poem reads as follows:Look closely and you'll see I made the feathers with my hands, Which are parts of me. This note comes with a lot of love Especially to say, I hope you have a very Happy Thanksgiving Day! |

| Pictured above is a sample turkey card front and message, created by a first-grade student, Kelly. Kelly received a score of 4 on her message, according to the rubric provided in the Assessment section of the learning experience. She utilized appropriate punctuation in all necessary locations (except following "I love you," because the students have not yet learned this use of the comma), as well as appropriate capitalization and spacing. She capitalized "love" in her sentence, and it was not caught by her peer reviewer. This error did not, however, amount to greater than the 10% limit for capitalization of unnecessary words. |
For the above writing sample, Jenny received a score of 3, because while she met nearly all criteria for a 4, she missed punctuation in 25% of necessary locations (after "I love you"). Her work does not warrant a 2, however, because, for example, she used 2 classroom resources (the word wall and her peer) for aids in spelling. She changed the spelling of "thank," in fact, because of her peer's guidance. |

| This is a turkey card created by a student
with fine motor impairments. The following modifications were made
in the creation of this card:
- the student typed out the "Happy Thanksgiving" message on the front of the card, so as to prevent frustration with excessive writing, and also to practice keyboarding skills - the student was given an outline of the message to be placed inside the card, in order to guide her writing. |
