This past week our first graders learned about the role that the Native Americans played in the first Thanksgiving. We read a book about Squanto and completed a Venn Diagram comparing the Native Americans to the Pilgrims. In addition, we read the story
Turkey Trouble by Wendi Silvano. Students then wrote their own stories about a turkey in disguise and made these adorable turkeys (idea from
The First Grade Parade)...they turned out pretty cute if I do say so myself! :)
Kimberly's turkey tricked the people by dressing up as a mom! :)
Marquise's turkey tricked the people by dressing up as a human and instead of getting eaten, the turkey was invited to Thanksgiving dinner! :)
Coming up next week: Reading both fiction and non-fiction stories about turkeys! Can't wait!
