A visit from a Pilgrim

A Pilgrim Visit

This week started with Halloween festivities and ended with First graders jumping right into their study of Pilgrims, Plymouth Plantation and the First Thanksgiving.

Students were visited by "Constance" today! She was a cheerful and knowledgeable Pilgrim from Plymouth, Plantation 

We learned about how Pilgrim children played, what they did for work, how they dressed, what they ate and even discussed some important similarities and differences about our daily lives.






Students are quickly gaining knowledge of the contrast between past and present events, recognizing some key differences between our lives and those of the Pilgrims.

Please reference the brainpop video titled, "thanksgiving" to learn more about the content students are experiencing in 1L.  

Love,
Mrs. L
