If you haven't done so already, you HAVE to visit www.plimoth.org and take your students on an exciting electronic field trip though Plimoth Plantation.![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_sWMD4k6e92T28GTGLHV30M6r95cysib2MEbyTtkc28_5g6eV-viOiA_QyGnHOCcZgrFQgdKd0K8jpVwu7V-TC76KB5UUua9CTiscUQmirFCMauS5xsNuKwAbFiyHc-r_FB3gAH67gcEE9YV7tyCDQYxq1sh0FjU95h1QrXneIdxgVWWjwra9b3Ua5B32jz=s0-d)
Lots of fun things to learn about:
- Meet a real descendent of a Wampanoag
- Find out what the pilgrims really ate at the "First Thanksgiving"
- Examine primary source documents
- Learn what is a myth and what is a fact
- Read about the lives of Wampanoags and Colonists

And... just for fun... I thought I'd throw in a picture of me in front of the Mayflower II (Replica of the real Mayflower). A year ago I was able to go on a Teacher's of American History Tour. We got to visit Plimoth Plantation and see the Mayflower II.
(I'm the one in the Purple.)
