Thanksgiving History Facts

A ship, called “Mayflower”, took off at September 6th 1620, with 102 people (the pilgrim) and 30 crew members on board to the new world of America, later called “New England”. The pilgrim had been traveling for 65 days until they reached the new world on November 11th in 1620. While the men were building houses for the small village of Plimoth, the women and children had to stay on board of the Mayflower for another 2 months. In this winter more than 50 people died because of illness and coldness. In January 1621, the pilgrim had the first contact to the “Wampanoag”, a tribe of Native Americans. They taught the pilgrim how to hunt and how to plant or grow up corn and other plants. In autumn 1621, when the pilgrim had enough food, they wanted to thank the Wampanoag for their help and celebrated the first American Thanksgiving, the “Harvest Feast”. They celebrated it for almost 3 days and nights.

WRITING

EXAMPLE 1

What do you do? Write about your job.

WHAT DO I DO?

I work as an English teacher. I don’t work outside, I work inside, in a Language School. I work in the afternoon and evening in the school and in the morning at home and sometimes I work at the weekend.

I work with computers, I use my computer to teach my students. I have a lot of students. I teach two different levels, basic 1 and intermediate 2.

I have special qualifications and I speak foreign languages. I speak and teach English. I study other languages, for example, German, Arabic and Italian. I like languages!

I don’ t travel when I work and I don’t drive. I don’t wear a uniform and I don’t earn a lot of money.

I love my job because teaching and languages are my passion.

EXAMPLE 2

I'm a maintenance technician in a big telecommunication company.

I work in three shifts, morning, evening and night, and every day in the year. Then I work some weekends and holidays too.

I normally work in the evening shift because I change  shifts with my workmates.

I drive a van when I go to repair faults. The mobile phone is very useful in my job because I need to talk with  my workmates, so that they  can tell me if the problem has been repaired.
