The
Thanksgiving
Story

We will begin a
unit on the Pilgrims and the First Thanksgiving this week. Students will
learn about the Mayflower
voyage and the first settlements in the New World. We
will discuss how the Pilgrims
and the Native Americans
worked together and celebrated the first harvest together.
We will make a bracelet with
colored bead that will represent
the
sequence
of events
in
the
Thanksgiving Story.
