This worked so well for our kids in my classroom as they are all on different levels. This gave us a way to differentiate learning for all of them.

Description

The First Thanksgiving {Autism & Special Education Resources}: Help your students explore and understand the First Thanksgiving using a developmentally appropriate text and hands-on activities! When teaching my students about the First Thanksgiving, I struggled to find a story that was engaging and accessible--so I wrote my own! These activities can be used in any classroom, but the clear visuals make this an especially beneficial resource for students with autism or other disabilities. (Save money when you buy this resource as part of my Thanksgiving Bundle for Autism & Special Education!)
