The First Arts and Crafts can mean Thanksgiving self help to handicapped
The first prade class of school No. 42 was fascinated by the story of “The First Thanksgiving” told to them by their teacher, Mrs. Hazel King. After much discussion the children decided to dramatize the story. The dramatization started with the Pilgrims’ unhappiness in England that led up to the first Thanksgiving. A 12 ft. replica of the Mayflower made by the boys of the Juvenile Center, under the direction of their Industrial Art Teacher, Paul R. S. King, helped the children to visualize the Pilgrims ocean journey. Many of the girls and boys had never seen a real boat, therefore, they had fun getting in and out of the Mayflower. Activities developed from this were: reading charts, vocubulary chart, Thanksgiving Songs, poems stressing thankfulness, Indian dances and art work. Six children dressed like Pilgrims and Indians told the story of the First Thanksgiving.
