Teacher's Corner
Decorate these bead-utiful corn stalks and learn how maize helped the harvest for the first Thanksgiving at Plymouth!
Lesson Objectives
- Dinner Is Served: During the settlers’ first year in Plymouth, Native Americans introduced them to corn — teaching them how to grow, husk, and cook it. Corn became an important food source for the settlers, since their European crops were unable to grow in North American soil. After all the food was harvested in the fall, both groups gathered together for a large feast. Take a look at the history behind the first Thanksgiving as a class!
- Corn Colors: Did you know that corn comes in many different colors, like white, yellow, black, red, and gray-blue? Have your students arrange their pony bead kernels in different colors to explore new patterns on their crafts — and take a look at more surprising corn facts!
Follow-up Discussion
Over time, corn has become more than a just food source — expanding into valuable roles in trade, culture, and scientific discoveries! Learn more about the impactful agricultural history of corn and what makes it so a-maize-ing! Then, ask your students to review the corn items from the video — how many do they use in their daily routines?
