Thanksgiving

Pilgrims couldn't go to the church they wanted to attend. The Pilgrims sailed in the Mayflower. They didn't have much food on their voyage. Some of them got sick and some died. In the beginning the Pilgrims didn't have much to eat. The Native Americans and the Pilgrims had a feast that lasted three days. Native Americans showed the Pilgrims how to plant food and how to hunt. They also taught them to put dead fish as a fertilizer for their plants. They also had to make new homes. They had to use an ax to cut down their trees. After the feast they played games. They had a cornucopia on their table. The Native Americans and Pilgrims became friends. The kinds of food they ate were corn, beans, and squash. We found out that Thanksgiving comes in the month of November and is the fourth Thursday in that month. Have a good day.
