Activities for the video “History of Thanksgiving” for Elementary Students
By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace
For many Americans, the Plymouth Massachusetts pilgrims serve as the emblematic influence for the modern Thanksgiving celebration. Following the winter of 1620 that resulted in the deaths of nearly half of their population, the colonists established aconnection with the nearby tribe, which educated them on fishing, agriculture, and hunting.
Even though Thanksgiving festivities trace back to the early European colonies in America, it was only in the 1860s that Abraham Lincoln proclaimed the final Thursday of November as a national holiday.
This ebook includes a variety of hands-on activities for Elementary students to engage in after viewing the video "History of the Holidays: History of Thanksgiving" produced by the well-regarded History Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lslqtUMwDxA. The activities accommodate all types of learners and will definitely keep your students engaged and eager to learn more about this American tradition.
The book offers extensive support for the teacher at the back, including Teacher's Notes and the corresponding answers to the exercises.
