Thanksgiving WebQuest (Printable Booklet)

This is a printable booklet about the First Thanksgiving. Your students will need to access the internet. If you want a digital version, click here!

This is a wonderful resource. I have used it for years. The children love being able to navigate it on their own, but aren't so crazy about just doing a regular old worksheet so, I created a booklet that corresponds to this website.

It is fun and educational. The students will have to reread, listen to text, and comprehend nonfiction text in order to complete the booklet. It is interesting!

Some of the websites are text and others are videos. There is even a virtual field trip! The variety of sources will help all children be successful on this assignment. It also promotes independence as well as differentiation.

This is a wonderful technology based activity to do the week of Thanksgiving!
