Thoughts on Thanksgiving: A Holiday Essay

Earlier this week, I shared what I’m thankful for this year so today I thought I’d share a holiday essay Honeybun has been working on this week about her favorite things about Thanksgiving.  It was her first 5-paragraph essay and while we had some frustration and hard times getting it done, I think she did an awesome job!

Thanksgiving is about Pilgrims and Indians having a feast so we do the same now. Many things are important about Thanksgiving.  My favorite parts of thanksgiving are my family, turkey, and pumpkin pie.

The most important thing to me is my family. I don’t always get to see a lot of my family so we get together on Thanksgiving. I like spending time with my family because I love them and because they are my family.

Turkey is also important to me.  We don’t always have it so I like it on Thanksgiving.  I like it because I like the skin.

Pumpkin pie is one of my favorites too.  We have pumpkin pie on special occasions like Thanksgiving.  I like it because the crust is crunchy sometimes.

There are many things that are important about Thanksgiving.  The most important things for me are my family, turkey and pumpkin pie.  Thanksgiving is a big celebration!

I created a 6-page template for her to use which guided her through every step of writing her essay and I think this holiday essay writing will become a usual thing and a great way to get her writing.
