This is my revised thanksgiving lesson.

This lesson was revised from Vitamin D's original Thanksgiving PPT lesson. I also plan on using the Turkey attack game, but I won't repost that as it has been posted multiple times on this site.

I made the text easier to read, and I added more cultural aspects of an American Thanksgiving besides just food.

Many thanks for Vitamin D, who even after his departure, is still teaching so many kids with his awesome lessons. 

Here is "turkey attack" ... I may have changed it a little, I can't remember.

Hello Everyone!
  I just wanted to say thank you to Vitamin D and JimmyJamison's Thanksgiving Day ppt lesson. It was beautifully done and I am so excited to use it in my classes. I did make a few changes to it like including actual photos of the Wampanoag Tribe on some of the slides. I also wanted to make a plea to everyone doing a Thanksgiving Day lesson. PLEASE, use the term Native Americans, or even better, say the Pilgrims learnt from the Wampanoag Tribe. Indian is a term that is both derrogatory and politically incorrect in American and fastly becoming so in the rest of the world to describe the tribal people of the Americas pre-Western settlement. We teach so much about the Pilgrims, who they are and how they were different from others in Europe, I think it is important that we do the same with the Wampanoag.
  I am attaching my revised Thanksgiving story ppt. (I have yet to change the personal pics, so don't worry JimmyJamison, I will not try to pass your family off as mine!) 

  Thank you both again! And Happy Thanksgiving!

Check on "Native American." Changed it in my PPT after reading that.

I'd also like to note I really didn't make any of this PPT. I just rearranged and compiled three different people's PPTs together into this. I really wish I had the other people's names so I could give them credit, but I downloaded their lessons over a year ago, and I can't find them on waygook anymore.

I have been having trouble downloading PPTs off waygook as well. I switched over to chrome and was able to download everything I needed. Try using a different browser.
