The First Thanksgiving


Enter the Scholastic web page and learn about the First Thanksgiving; you can learn a lot of things about this period!

Voyage on the Mayflower has two parts for students to explore. The first part is an interactive map of the journey across the Atlantic Ocean. You can click on placemarks on the map to read and hear about the journey. The second part of the Voyage on the Mayflower takes you "inside" the Mayflower to see and hear about the parts of the ship.



Daily Life is a comparison of the lifestyles of the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag. You can click through each aspect of daily life to see a comparison of housing, clothing, food, chores, school, and games.

 
Finally, Scholastic has partnered with Plimoth Plantation to produce three video tours of Plimoth Plantation, a Wampanoag homesite, and a Pilgrim homesite.
