Pilgrims and Wampanoag

Let's start by voting on this week's poll.  After you vote, please come to the floor in front of the Smart Board and we'll talk about today's activity.

It has been fun learning about the Pilgrims and Indians to get ready for Thanksgiving!  Last week we compared the way the Pilgrims live with how we live.  Today we are going to compare the way the Pilgrims and Indians, called Wampanoag, lived during the time of the First Thanksgiving.

We'll practice on the Smart Board together!  Go to: http://www.scholastic.com/scholastic_thanksgiving/daily_life/ .  Read the story called "Daily Life."  You can click on the headphone picture and listen to the paragraph too.  After you listen and read, click on the different tabs called housing, clothes, food, chores, school and games.  You can read and listen to compare and contrast what life was like for the Pilgrims and Wampanoag.  Make sure to read and listen to each tab.

Have fun!
