We started off our unit learning about the pilgrims and how they traveled across the ocean to find freedom.
We had a great time acting out the Mayflower voyage. We even enjoyed a Mayflower meal. We ate cheese, unsalted crackers, beef jerky and had some water.
Some of us enjoyed the meal...some of us would not of survived on the Mayflower.
We enjoyed Pilgrim hats for snack. Thanks Joshua!
