The time around the Thanksgiving is my favorite time of year. I love fall colors, the smell of the fire, and fall foods. I also love the idea of gratitude and that this is a time of thankfulness and reflection. However, there are so many myths surrounding Thanksgiving, some of which are downright lies, that we have to help our students unlearn, so this time of year also offers us the opportunity to teach historically accurate material and empathy in a way that ties into something that our students either experience through their own celebrations or by seeing Thanksgiving in popular culture.
