Like countless other Americans the Macys Thanksgiving Parade will be on the tv in my home this coming Thursday early morning. Similar to in 2015 Macys is providing some.
hands-on STEAM lessons related to the parade..

The History of the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade.

Parade 101 functions four video presentations of hands-on activities that students can do at house with their parents or in your class. The 4 activities include inflating balloons through the use of baking soda and vinegar, developing balloons for the parade, making and using sculping dough, and structure model floats. All of the videos include lists of required products..
I like all 4 of the activities. If I was to recommend one for Thanksgiving day it would be building model floats or designing since they can be made with cardboard, paper, glue, markers, and other typical household materials that dont make a mess and dont have actually to be carried out in a cooking area. That stated, I believe one of the most fun one is the inflating balloons activity..
In addition to the videos and STEAM tasks Parade 101 offers some coloring puzzles and sheets. An interactive timeline of the history of the parade is still offered to view as well..
