Pam Holz, our Washington County Conservationist visited our classroom yesterday to show students that you can have lots of fun without much equipment during the Thanksgiving season. Students enjoyed playing 3 different Native American games: Shoulder Wrestle, Pebble Drop and One Pebble Game. Students were challenged in their strength, patience, and cleverness to win these games. These fun games tied in well with our Social Studies work as first graders have been learning about the First Thanksgiving and how young pilgrim and Native American boys and girls were creative in making up games.
