Mission Steps

We are going to begin by going to the website that describes what
Pilgrams used to wear. Click on this picture to go to the website.
 2. After we look at the information, we will get some paper and begin to draw a picture of what the pilgrams used to wear. 3. We will then share with the class what we thought that we should wear and then give the teacher the pictures to hang around the class. |
