THANKSGIVING!! :)

This is the book MOLLY`S PILGRIM
 

This is the book we got the facts from.

 

Every year we celebrate Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving started long ago when the pilgrims came to America.  If you come from another country and people make fun of you, tell them you are a modern day pilgrim.  In class we read a book called, MOLLY`S PILGRIM.  It was about this girl named Molly and she moved to America. Molly talked differently and the other girls made fun of her by saying, "Jolly Molly, Jolly Molly, your eyes are awfully small.  Jolly Molly, your nose is awfully tall."  A lot of kids liked it. I think it is the best Thanksgiving book I have ever read  .Did you know that  back then the native Americans had brown skin?  Nowadays we celebrate Thanksgiving by eating turkey,stuffing, pie (yummy).  A lot of people have more food that they serve every year that is called a tradition.  At my house the tradition is we eat cake to celebrate my brothers`s birthday.  Now here are some facts about Thanksgiving:  the pilgrims sailed to America in the Mayflower.  The pilgrims set sail in1620.  The pilgrims sailed from England.  The pilgrims went on long journeys for religious reasons.  The Mayflower was about 106 feet long & 25 feet wide.  One of the women on the Mayflower gave birth to a baby named Oceanus Hopkins.  The ship was perched on the coast of Cape Cod.  Plymouth was the site of an abandoned native village.

All about the Titanic

Today we are learning about the Titanic and how it sunk. We will watch a documentary on the Titanic and read a book called Discovering the Titanic! The Titanic hit an iceberg.  The water went in the bottom of the boat.  The boat broke in 2 pieces.  1,502 people did not survive. 711 did survive.  They also found jewelry in a safe. Did you know that if the ship went straight through the iceberg it wouldn't have sank?  This is a fact that not everyone knows!
