Learn and Serve Eight


On Tuesday when i went to learn and serve Mrs. Johnson told me that we had a new student in the class who came to the class last week. When the new student came in the students that set next to him said hello and asked how he was. I know how it feels to be a new student at a new school in a new classroom. It is very scary and as a student you get every nervous to be accepted by peers in the classroom. During the class we discussed the pilgrims and what is the meaning of thanks giving. We spilt the class up into 3 groups of 5 student Mrs. Johnson, me, and another teacher that comes in the class had different readings for the students to learn about the pilgrims. Then we gathered the students around and asked each student what they are thankful for this year many of the students said that they were thankful for the moms and dads. This class made me remember when i was in elementary school and we dressed up as pilgrims. We should the students picture of what the pilgrims life was like. I really enjoyed this class today.

  1. Please connect a hyperlink that shows critical thinking in relation to the pilgrim activity. How does this type of teaching promote stereotypes about native people? see this link? http://www.oyate.org/resources/longthanks.html
