Hello,

My name is anonymous man!

I am 14 years old. I live in marseille and my favorite occupation is reading books or playing football.

For me, it is definitely something I want to do, and I've been practising sports since I was small but sadly I no longer do. 

I also like tennis, ping-pong and more.

My wildest dream is to live in a Caribbean island because I am patient and as I love nature and animals.

Hello , I’m Mr Chatterbox!

I am fourteen years old and I was born on 23 January 1998 . My parent divorced when I was six or seven years old .

I live in Marseille with my mother , my sister , my stepfather and my two cats : Mirabelle and Princesse. I have chosen their names .

The following week I live with my father , my sister and my stepmother . I have a really good feeling with my sister and I like my stepfather but not really my stepmother.

I think if I were an animal I could be a monkey because I am not very serious and I love laughing with my friends. I like going out with my friends, listening to music and practising sports . During the winter I love going to the moutains for skiing and snow boarding . When I am on holidays I like visiting other countries because I see different people and I eat new food.

Facts and figures about Thanksgiving

Here are a few facts about Thanksgiving.
Click on the picture to enlarge it.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is an important part of the American culture.
It is important for American people to give "thanks" in general for the good things they have in their lives.
It is also an old religious tradition.

  

 Food plays a crucial part in the celebration as you can see in these wonderful paintings from Norman Rockwell.

"Freedom from want" - Norman Rockwell

Turkey and pumpkin pies are traditional meals that most American people share with family and friends.

However catching the turkey isn't always easy!

The American Thanksgiving has a long history that goes back to the first European immigrants that went to live in America.

They were called the "pilgrim fathers" because they immigrated to escape religious persecutions.
They arrived on board of the Mayflower and they landed on the territory of the Wampanoag Indian tribe and made friend with them.

The tradition says in 1621, the British colonists invited the Indians to a big feast of thanks for the good harvest of the year.

"The First Thanksgiving" (1915), by Jean Louis Gerome Ferris (American painter, 1863-1930).

However, it is important to remember the British colonists were not very thankful to the Indian tribes in general and after years of conflicts between Europeans and Indians, most of the Indian population was eradicated.
