Gobble up, these Sites!
A good way to begin a Thanksgiving lesson is to give a little introduction on the history of Thanksgiving. There's a very nice Thanksgiving midi song to greet you when you arrive at the first site and there is lots of great background on the historical account of the "First Thanksgiving". While you are at the site, visit the page with the Thanksgiving songs too. This article also points you to some craft-making activities. One in particular are various puppet patterns. Many times a timid singer will find it much easier to sing to a puppet than they will to a music teacher. This puppet project could fit nicely in an ear training lesson.
