Children will learn how pirates are connected to Plymouth, and they will gain a Native American perspective on issues then and now. This series includes English paper dolls with samples of attire from the different classes, an interactive North American History Timeline, separate narratives for teacher/parent use (adult interaction required), and an adorable turkey certificate of learning recognition. 42 reproducible plates. Series can optionally be used in conjunction with Next Generation Thanksgiving Lesson Plans.
