The “Thanksgiving” worksheet is a writing prompt activity designed to educate students about the holiday of Thanksgiving and to encourage them to reflect on their personal experiences and knowledge. The worksheet prompts students to write about the month in which Thanksgiving occurs, the specific day of the week it is celebrated, and to share their own traditions or activities that they engage in on this day. It serves as a platform for students to express what the holiday means to them personally and to practice their writing skills.
