Pilgrims: The True Story of Squanto and the First Thanksgiving
This is always a favorite of mine -- I still have former students message me on Thanksgiving to wish me a Happy SquantoGiving (it makes sense after the activity). Squanto lived a fascinating, heart-breaking and inspiring life, and deserves so much more attention and credit than we give him. This reading (with visuals) walks students through his remarkable story, which intertwines with the Pilgrims and explains how the first Thanksgiving came to be. It then dives into the interesting history of h

Thanksgiving Activity: Peanuts Mayflower Voyagers Quiz
Every year I treat my students to the Peanuts Thanksgiving special. They always enjoy it, but I've found that the "The Mayflower Voyagers", which tells the historically accurate story of the Pilgrims first Thanksgiving is even more popular. It can be found as the "Bonus Feature" on the "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" DVD. This is a little assessment I wrote to test the kids' knowledge of the first Thanksgiving. There are 2 versions: one with a word box and one with a reflection task. Hope you

Native American Heritage Month/Famous Native Americans Scavenger Hunt
Native American History Month is in November, but I, even as an educator, didn’t know this until I was in my late 30’s. I polled my own students and they, like me, know less than we should about Native American heroes; I am embarrassed by this—they, of course, are excused! This scavenger hunt is a fun and engaging and collaborative way to learn about such legendary Native Americans as Sherman Alexie, Wilma Mankiller, Sequoyah, Sitting Bull, Maria Tallchief, and Sacagawea.
