Thanksgiving is an important festival in North
America. We interviewed several students from the US and Canada. Here is what
they have told us about their Thanksgiving experiences.
Josie
from New York, USA
In America, Thanksgiving is celebrated
every year at the end of November. It is to remember the first group of people
from Europe to live in America. When they first arrived, they found the
environment strange. But they learned to survive after some native American
friends showed them how to grow and find food. Thanksgiving is meant to be a
traditional celebration.
Todd
from California, USA
Thanksgiving is the first day of Christmas
shopping. That means we have four weeks to buy Christmas presents for our
families and friends. For me and my friends, the most important part of the festival
is the big football game on TV. The match is watched by millions of people all
over America. Thanksgiving is seen as an exciting day for football!
Ian
from Saskatoon, Canada
In Canada, Thanksgiving is held on the
second Monday in October. On the Sunday before Thanksgiving Day, many people go
to church. Thanks are given for all the good things that happened to them
during the year. I always give thanks for the nice big turkey I'm going to have
at the family dinner! Like all festivals, Thanksgiving is about food!
Katie
from Maritimes, Canada
On Thanksgiving Day, we have dinner with
all our cousins, aunts and uncles. It is always very busy. Sometimes we have
two Thanksgiving dinners because we go to both our grandparents' houses. The dinner
is usually attended by more than twenty people at each house! My mother and my
aunts do all the cooking but the washingup is done by me and my cousins. And
that's not an easy job! But I don't mind because Thanksgiving is meant to be a
time to give thanks.
