The Story of Squanto + Modern Thanksgiving traditions

Hi guys,

 

today we finished working on the text about "Squanto". Here is what we said:

 

Squanto

He was a teacher:

-> He taught the pilgrims how to plant corn.

He was a helper:

-> He helped them where to catch fish.

He was a guide:

-> He guided them where to hunt.

He was a friend:

-> He reconciled the Native Americans with the Pilgrims.

-----------------

He was the creator of Thanksgiving.

Vocabulary:

  • plant / grow / harvest

  • hunt / catch fish

  • Pilgrim / Native American


Then we continued the lesson with a presentation of modern Thanksgiving traditions. We had time to speak about:

- Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade in New-York City.

 


- Black Friday.
