MLES kindergarten students study relationship between Native Americans, Pilgrims
The Mountain Lake Public Elementary School (MLES) kindergarten students of Nicole James and Kelli Tucholke presented a first Thanksgiving re-enactment Wednesday afternoon, November 26, in James’ classroom, celebrating with a special meal. The students have been learning about the relationship between the Native Americans who greeted the Pilgrims after they landed at Plymouth Rock following their voyage across the Atlantic Ocean.
Below are a few photographs from that kindergarten Thanksgiving Feast.
