The First Thanksgiving

The First Thanksgiving
An excellent resource from Scholastic for teachers wanting their students to learn about or conduct research on the history of Thanksgiving.   Students can learn about the voyage on the Mayflower, Daily Life and the Thanksgiving Feast.   The site has many pictures and students can either read the accompanying text or listen to narration (great for younger students).

I had my grade 5 students use this site last year to complete research projects on the Pilgrims and it worked out well. The site has lots of graphics, is well organized and the fact that the text can be read to students by clicking on a button helped my ESL students.
