Kindergarten Teacher
We read some non-fiction books about Pilgrims and the chores that they do. I have my children write about chores that they do at home. We compare/contrast our chores to their chores. We also make Mosaic Pilgrim (boy and girl) heads to display with our writing.

Webmaster note: Wow Dawn! It's amazing that you have your kindergarteners writing this well so early in the year! The writing/art project is a great way to teach kids about pilgrim life and the importance of taking responsibility. Many thanks for sharing this idea... and the pictures!
