Pilgrim Day

We have been studying about the first Thanksgiving during the month of November. My kiddos were really interested in learning more about them. We spent the day before break learning all we could about Pilgrims.  I used the Pilgrim Day pack from Mrs. Wheeler and it was packed with all kinds of goodies!

We made butter and tasted it! The consensus was that they liked it!

I also had stations set up for hunting and gathering, games, and toys. 

I am so lucky at my school to have a set of Chromebooks and I also have iPads in my classroom. I incorporated these into my Pilgrim Day. My students spent time doing a webquest on Scholastic learning all about the Pilgrims. They then used the iPads to record what they learned about Pilgrims. The app Chatterpics was so easy for them to use! 

How cute is this little Pilgrim!?!?!
