Why do Americans celebrate Thanksgiving?
Dear John,
As the holidays approach, have your students explore three different presidential Thanksgiving proclamations. Throughout history, Americans have believed that showing gratitude to God and to their communities is an important act. What has caused presidents to issue proclamations calling for days of thanks? What recurring themes have shown in these proclamations ranging from Washington to Lincoln to FDR? This complete lesson includes a graphic organizer and comprehension questions.
