THANKSGIVING DAY

Thanksgiving Day is celebrated in the USA and Canada. In the States, it is on the fourth Thursday in November, however, in Canada, it is celebrated in October. Families gather together for a big meal, which usually consists of roast turkey with potatoes, corn, carrots and other vegetables. Pumpkin pie is essential for dessert. It is also a time to be thankful for the good things we have, so we say: I´M THANKFUL FOR... What are you thankful for?
Now it´s your turn: watch the videos and practice the new vocabulary with a game.
