Mission
Activity
Today, we are going to
pretend we are cooks for the first Thanksgiving meal. We need to
prepare a menu for our guest using pictures of each item because all
Pilgrims and Indians may not speak the same language. Let's review
the what foods may have been there. |

Mission
Activity Steps
1.
Choose at least three foods
to include in your menu. Two of them should be items that
were included in the first Thanksgiving meal. One of them should
be an item that was not at the dinner.
2. Fold your paper in half and write, "Menu by your name" on the front. You may decorate the front however you like. 3. On the inside, draw and color pictures of the foods that were included in the first Thanksgiving meal. 4. On the back write, "Sorry, we do not have...". In the rest of the space on the back cover, draw pictures of at least on item that was not included in the first Thanksgiving. |
