Even though Thanksgiving is as American as apple pie (or maybe pumpkin!) French teachers can still tap into children's excitement for this holiday. As American children are learning about the customs, traditions, and history of Thanksgiving, they can also be developing French listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills. Young French learners in PK - Grade 2 will enjoy hearing and acting out a story about Thanksgiving friendship called "A Dinner at Plymouth Rock." The Thanksgiving theme and the French language come alive through Total Physical Response, stories, writing activities, vocabulary games, songs, and coloring pages. Make this storytelling unit a November Franco-American tradition. 19 pages
