2nd Grade Thanksgiving Celebration
Our Second Grade had a great learning experience as we learned all about the First Thanksgiving. Our driving question was “How did the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag impact our history?”. We worked hard on our reading and writing skills as we researched and learned the events from the past. We shared with our families what we discovered by having a Thanksgiving Celebration. We started with a performance that included songs, poems, and a Reader’s Theater story that told about the timeline and events of the Pilgrim and Wampanoag history. We learned that the Pilgrims would not have survived if it wasn’t for the friendship and help from the Wampanoags. Without their friendship, our history would be different today. The second grade also made an artifact and an informational writing that demonstrated our learning. We invited families to visit us and learn about our artifacts at our Artifact Museum. We ended our celebration with a Thanksgiving Feast as we enjoyed foods that would have been shared at the First Thanksgiving.
