For today's class you were supposed to  go online  for

an  Info Search  . You were expected to visit a Website

to find information about the first settlers' arrival in America

and Plymouth Rock. 

Here's the link to the Website! Click on the Pilgrim!

                               

So first things first today, I had you share your findings and

we tried to answer  some key  questions about the first immigrants:

-  Who were they ? What were they called and why ?

- Where did they come from ? When did they leave?

- Why did they emigrate ?

- What is Plymouth Rock ?

Then in order  to thank you for your hard work,

I had you complete a  CLOZE TEST  in pairs

 about the First Thanksgiving .  You were asked to focus on Time markers

and linkwords as well as  on the Thanksgiving-related vocabulary,

to help you study the chronology of events.

   

Then you were asked to  use the information collected in class

  to fill in a Thanksgiving Crossword  Puzzle .

You  may have a hard time, but what a fun 

way to memorize useful vocabulary and

historical information !

I gave you today.

       

I hope you have learnt something new today !
