The first Thanksgiving occurred in 1621 in Plymouth, Massachusetts between a group of indigenous people and Pilgrims. The tradition is celebrated in the United States on the fourth Thursday in November.
Fourth grade students in Mrs. Crane's, Mrs. Lippold, and Mrs. Carrick's classes looked at the first Thanksgiving and what it might have been like. They were given a choice of projects to create to coincide with their unit study.
The students did a fantastic job. This is just a few of them we hope you will enjoy!

A mode of transportation-build a canoe
Wishing York Families a very Happy Thanksgiving!

How do you review for a Science test?
