What the Pilgrims Ate

Ever wonder if the Pilgrims ate the same things that we do now at the first Thanksgiving? Our second graders were asked that very same question! Students were given a large shopping bag full of different kinds of fruits, vegetables, meats, as well as facts about the first Thanksgiving. Students then worked together to fill two plate, one with what they thought the Pilgrims did eat and one with what they thought the Pilgrims did not eat. Students were shocked to find out that the Pilgrims had a lot of fish and there were no forks! Thank you so much to Ms. MJ for being our First Thanksgiving expert and sharing these fun facts with us!
