Practice writing informational, opinion and narrative paragraphs using 4 different prompts inspired by the Thanksgiving historical fiction picture book, Squanto’s Journey by Joseph Bruchac.
The four prompts include two different kinds of informational paragraphs, a convincing opinion paragraph, and a narrative paragraph describing a scene from Squanto’s life.
As students read Squanto’s Journey, they get the story of Thanksgiving from a different perspective, that of the Native American who helped the Pilgrims.
