Kindergarten has been working on Thanksgiving and Fall research during their Specials time. They visit 6 stations where they learn about the First Thanksgiving, when Thanksgiving became a national holiday, how different people celebrate Thanksgiving, pumpkins, apples, and finally discuss their perfect Thanksgiving Dinner. Wonderful 4th grade helpers read books at each station and help the kindergarten students pull out the important information to include in their research packet. This project has been very fun and exciting for all the students involved. Check out the fun and the great books below.
