Teaching Thanksgiving to our Children How do we teach the concept of thanksgiving to our children? There are several things we can do to insure our children understand the importance of giving thanks to God. The first and most important element in teaching our children any new concept is that we model it before them. Children are master emulators and will do as we do. Our prayer and worship life must reflect a thankful heart toward our gracious Lord. Teach Scripture to your children. The following is a list of several verses you can teach even to your youngest child. 1 Chronicles 16:8-9 - [8] "Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done. [9] Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts." Psalm 7:17 - " I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness and will sing praise to the name of the LORD Most High." Psalm 28: 7 - "... I will give thanks to him in song." Psalm 42:4 - "These things I remember as I pour out my soul: how I used to go with the multitude, leading the procession to the house of God, with shouts of joy and thanksgiving among the festive throng." Psalm 69: 30 - "I will praise God's name in song and glorify him with thanksgiving."

It is good to give thanks to the Lord and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High. ~ Psalm 92:1 ~ Thanksgiving is upon us once again. What a wonderful time of year. We get together with family and friends and thank the Lord for all his many blessings through the year. We ask Him, anew to bless us in the coming year. It is good to spend time with our family and friends. It is good to thank the Lord for His goodness. But, what is it that God wants from us in the way of thanksgiving? God wants our worship. He wants us to thank Him and praise Him for who He is. Thanksgiving and worship go hand in hand. If we have one without the other, we have unbalanced worship and unbalanced praise. We need to teach our children the importance of worship; recognizing the holiness of God. Otherwise, we relegate Him to a heavenly Santa Clause, who is only interested in hearing us thank Him for what He does, instead of thanking Him for who He is. Let us take Thanksgiving 2003 to worship and thank the Lord as the holy God He is. May we recognize our Lord as the sovereign of the universe and the One who is the giver of our salvation. Without the grace of God we would not be saved. “For by grace you have been saved through faith;

27. THE SCOOP For November 28, 1996 -- The Stuff They Didn't Teach About Thanksgivin THE SCOOP for November 28, 1996 The Stuff They Didn t teach About thanksgiving, part 1 of 2. Hot Zone in the New World (C)1996 http://www.subgenius.com/scoop/X0011_THE_SCOOP-_The_Stuff.html

THE SCOOP for November 28, 1996 The Stuff They Didn't Teach About Thanksgiving, part 1 of 2 Hot Zone in the New World (C)1996 Bob Harris TheScoop@earthlink.net [] = italics [Note: these articles were intentionally released after the holiday. It didn't feel right to bug anyone on a well-deserved long weekend. This way there's a year to let it all sink in.] When I was in first grade, we never spent a day talking about the "meaning" of Halloween or Memorial Day. We spent a week on the Thanksgiving story. Plymouth Rock, 1621: Pilgrims escaping religious persecution and settling an empty continent shared their bounty with primitive Indians with whom they shared the land. (Aside to uptight liberals: most actual American Indians really don't care much if we call them "Indians," "Native Americans," or "Constantinople." As if a polite term could undo 500 years. You should hear what they call [us].) Thanksgiving is really a creation myth for white America, a capsule of what cheap politicians consider traditional values: manifest destiny, the Protestant work ethic, cultural superiority, etc. Our ritual reenactment of the feast is nothing less than a civil sacrament. It's also almost completely phony.

Click on square to stop music (for printing) Enjoy Colours of the Wind from Pocahantas - special music for Thanksgiving GRACIOUS GRACES SHARE YOUR BLESSINGS As Thanksgiving approaches, each of us says “thank you” in our own way, and each of us says thank you for those things that are special in our individual lives. The “blessings” listed below caught my eye in the November 1997 McCall’s magazine (p. 184) under “Traditions.” If your family does not have a special “grace” that is said before meals, please consider using one of these. As a child I remember my father always said our “grace” before "every" meal (and there was only me, my mom and my dad). And even though he seldom varied our blessing, the sincerity was always there. As we did not have relatives nearby, my mother always invited several others who were alone at thanksgiving to share our meal. Sharing became part of our family tradition. No matter how simple or how elegant your table or your chosen food is, a blessing can give us “FOOD FOR THOUGHT.” MAY ALL THE BLESSINGS OF LIFE BE YOURS - AND MAY YOU SHARE YOUR BLESSINGS WITH OTHERS - Pamela Perreault Let us give thanks for this food And Thy blessing and benediction be upon it.

29. The Holiday Zone: Thanksgiving Arts And Crafts Explain that in the United States many people cook turkey for thanksgiving dinner. teach or review basic game terminology (ie Make a circle. Sit down. http://www.geocities.com/holidayzone/thanks/tgames.html

Gobble, Gobble, Cook Me! This is a Thanksgiving adaptation of Duck, Duck, Goose. Players sit on ground in large circle. One player is chosen as the turkey. The turkey must then select a cook who will try to catch him or her and roast him or her for Thanksgiving dinner. The turkey walks around the circle, patting each student lightly on the head and calling each student either "Gobble" or "Cook me!" As long as the turkey says, "Gobble," he or she is safe. When the turkey calls "Cook me!," however, the player tagged must jump up and chase the turkey around the circle. If the cook catches the turkey, the turkey must go sit in the center of the circle (the roasting pot). If the turkey sits in the cook's spot before the cook tags him or her, the turkey is safe, and the cook becomes the next turkey. To use this game in an ESL or EFL setting . . . Teach the vocabulary phrases, "What sound does a turkey make?" / "A turkey says, 'Gobble, Gobble." Discuss sounds made by other animals. Explain that in the United States many people cook turkey for Thanksgiving dinner. Teach or review basic game terminology (i.e. Make a circle. Sit down. Eun-soo, you begin. Eun-soo is walking around the circle. Eun-soo is patting Min-kyung on the head. Eun-soo says, "Gobble." Min-kyung was not chosen. Eun-soo is patting Gyu-ri on the head. Eun-soo says, "Cook me!" Eun-soo runs around the circle. Gyu-ri jumps up and chases him. She is not fast enough. Eun-soo sits down in Gyu-ri's spot. Eun-soo is safe. Gyu-ri is now the turkey.)

document.write(''); A Letter to Parents About Thanksgiving Thanksgiving presents a special challenge to school teachers who want to discuss the holiday without resorting to biased information about Native American history and culture. To prepare parents for an anti-bias curricular approach, educators may wish to use or adapt the letter below. For additional teaching tips on Native American topics, see Teaching About Native American Issues Sample Letter to Parents Dear Parents: As a part of our anti-bias curriculum, we are taking a careful look at how we discuss and celebrate Thanksgiving with students. As you may know, many Native American images found on Thanksgiving cards, decorations, and school materials are very stereotypic. They are often based on a "composite" view of Native Americans rather than on accurate and diverse Native American lifestyles and traditions. As a consequence, Thanksgiving imagery serves to teach and reinforce children's misinformation and stereotypic thinking about Native Americans, laying a foundation for later prejudice. Moreover, the story of Thanksgiving is usually told from only one side that of the European pilgrims who came to America. Rarely is it told from the perspective of the people who were already here. As a result, the role played by Native Americans in helping the pilgrims to survive is often downplayed or ignored. To many Native Americans today, Thanksgiving is a day of mourning because it is a reminder that in return for their help, they were repaid with theft of their land and the genocide of their people.

This week, Education World helps put Thanksgiving in perspective and challenges students to "think about Thanksgiving." Included: Lessons that teach science, math, geography, foreign languages, more! Teaching about Thanksgiving presents some very unique challenges. The biggest challenge lies in providing students with a balanced telling of the story of the Pilgrim’s first harvest in the New World. Indeed, many children’s books tell the traditional Thanksgiving story from the perspective of the Pilgrim settlers. The point of view of the Wampanoags, the Indian tribe that befriended those settlers, is often ignored. We even refer to that Thanksgiving in 1621 as the "First Thanksgiving" when, in reality, the Wampanoags had been celebrating the annual harvest for many years and people in many other cultures had been putting on feasts of thanksgiving for centuries.

the wampanoag the english colonists plymouth colony thanksgiving ... glossary Featured Items in Our Shop : Thanksgiving by the (Cook) Book Bayberry Candles As American as Pumpkin Pie by Karin Goldstein, Curator of Original Collections This tradition of American culture must have seemed bewildering to newcomers. As reformers pondered how to teach new immigrants how to become good Americans, many looked to examples from the past. Since the early 20th century, the Pilgrims and Thanksgiving have been used to teach both new Americans and school children about American history and values. This is just one of many ways that people have looked at the holiday over time. Prior to the mid-1800s, Thanksgiving had nothing to do with the 1621 harvest celebration, Pilgrims or Native People. Thanksgiving started as a traditional New England holiday that celebrated family and community. It descended from Puritan days of fasting and festive rejoicing. The governor of each colony or state declared a day of thanksgiving each autumn, to give thanks for general blessings. As New Englanders moved west in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, they took their holiday with them. After the harvest, governors across the country proclaimed individual Thanksgivings, and families traveled back to their original homes for family reunions, church services and large meals.

CELEBRATIONS Subtopic: Strawberry Thanksgiving Grade Level: Author: Angela Armstrong Justesen Background: The Native Americans, specifically , the Narragansett and Niantic tribes, located in the New England States, have celebrations for each moon of the year. They have thirteen moons, and thirteen thanksgivings. At these thanksgivings, they give thanks for their bounteous harvests, their families, and traditions. The Strawberry Moon is the early summer moon. Strawberry Thanksgiving takes place during mid to late June and reflects different kinds of celebrations. Not all tribes participate in this celebration. Strawberry Thanksgiving is celebrated wherever strawberries are grown, and each tribe celebrates it differently. Some tribes opt to celebrate privately, with only the family, tribe, or a few tribes attending. Others opt to make it a public celebration in which both Native American people and non-Native American people attend. This way of celebrating provides the non-Native Americans with an opportunity to learn about and participate in Native American traditions. Their thanksgiving is a celebration of the Native American harvest and how grateful they are to be able to have such a bounteous harvest. They also celebrate their crafts, food, music, and dance. All four things are represented in abundance at the thanksgiving festival. There are artisans trying to sell their crafts, many traditional foods are prepared for consumption, and each tribe has its own music and dance to coincide with the thanksgiving celebration.

Imagine Me at the First Thanksgiving Unit: Thanksgiving Grade: Kindergarten Objective : The students will imagine what they think the First Thanksgiving was like and then draw a picture of themselves at the First Thanksgiving for a class book. Materials Imagine by Alison Lester -white construction paper -crayons Procedure 1. Ask the students some review questions about the First Thanksgiving. As a class discuss key points of it. 2. Ask the children if they know what the word imagine means. Listen and respond to several suggestions. 3. Read the story Imagine to the class. Before each page have them imagine in their minds what they think each of the different places looks like. Discuss how the picture in their minds might differ from the picture in the book. Discuss how we can be a different person or be in a different place if we use our imaginations. 4. Do a simple relaxation procedure, such as relaxing each part of their body. Then have the children close their eyes and imagine what they think the First Thanksgiving was like. Describe to them some things they might see, such as a table, food, Pilgrims and Indians. After they have a picture of the First Thanksgiving, have the class imagine themselves there. Are they a pilgrim or an Indian? What are they doing?

NU for Families Enjoyable Time Together - Family Activities Thanksgiving Is A Time For Teaching Thanksgiving has become a day of football, fun and food. It is also a great opportunity for parents and grandparents to teach family values. In the hectic pace of modern life, Thanksgiving is one of the few times during the year when most families all sit down at the same time - to eat, to talk and reaffirm the common values that hold us together as a family and as a nation. Parents and grandparents not only have an occasion to enjoy Thanksgiving - we have a chance to teach Thanksgiving - to help our children understand and appreciate the significance of family bonds, faith and American values. No one wants children to think of this day as a celebration of gluttony or a TV sports endurance test. How children view this day depends in large part on what we emphasize as important. Since the first Thanksgiving observed by the Pilgrims, this holiday has remained basically a home and family celebration. At a period when many people feel that traditional home and family values are at risk, Thanksgiving is a time to confirm the importance of what this day really means. Here are 10 suggestions to make this day more meaningful: 1. Everyone should have some part in preparing the meal. Even the smallest child can help. Mashing potatoes, setting the table, making decorations are not just Mom's job - these tasks allow everyone to be an important part of the celebration.

Karen's Linguistics Issues This Month's Articles Previous Months Send Email Presenting American Culture to Students of English: Thanksgiving Day by Dr Antonio R. Roldán Tapia Alhaken II High School / University of Córdoba, Spain , December 2001 INTRODUCTION Teaching and learning English in many European countries means having a British-centred view of the language, its speakers and their culture(s). It is something to be expected because of the short distance between the UK and the continent, and because of the influence of publishers based in Britain. I do not want to say that this is wrong, but it gives students a restricted knowledge of the language and its culture. By taking a look at popular textbooks, it can be noted that students can only find a little information about the States, like the American flag, a picture of the White House and something else....hamburgers and cola. The purpose of this article is to share how other native speakers’ cultures can be learnt at school, independently of the textbook we are using. Because of my personal and professional experience, I have tried to teach my students about the USA and American culture.
