The Pilgrims

Today you will take a field trip to Plimoth Plantation, where you will learn about the Pilgrims who settled in the Massachusetts area in 1620.  You will be reading some primary documents and learning about the Wampanoag People.  

When finished with the activity, you will write a historical fiction story.  Begin by creating a fictional character that is either a member of the Wampanoag people or an English colonist.  Your story should be about events leading up to and including the Thanksgiving feast.  Remember, this is your chance to be creative, but your story must have been possible based on the facts you discovered on the website.

If you are at home today, there is a google doc that gives you instructions on how to navigate the site. In addition, you will need to create a KWL chart.  The chart should have 3 columns:
What I think I know, What I would like to know, and What I learned.
This can be created on a google doc or simply written on lined notebook paper.
