How to play Pin the Feather on the Turkey

Hang a big turkey without tail feathers on the board.
Write a student's name, or a review question, on each paper feather.
A student closes their eyes, is gently spun once, then walks to the turkey and sticks their feather on.
If the feather has a question, the student answers it after looking.
The feather closest to the turkey's tail wins a small prize.

Each feather can hold one thing the student is thankful for, making a class gratitude turkey.
