Pilgrim Jonathan Brewster helps Alexandra Azero (a third grade student at Blessed Sacrament School) don the clothing of a Pilgrim girl. Each year third graders at Blessed Sacrament School study the Pilgrims as part of their social studies unit. Jonathan Brewster (an interpreter from Plimoth Plantation) presented a workshop for students on “Life in Plimoth Colony” on October 29th.
During their study of the Pilgrims students create a Pilgrim Diary, play games from the Colonial period and culminate the unit with a small classroom feast.
