Plan, design, and create a Thanksgiving Parade with a fun Thanksgiving project!
Plan a Parade and Build Your Own Thanksgiving Balloons!
The Thanksgiving Day Parade is the biggest parade in New York City, and we want your students to experience it with this project-based learning activity.
Students will research the history of the parade and its traditions. They will plan their own parade route, lineup, floats, and Thanksgiving Parade Balloons!
This project is a perfect way to engage students during that last week of school before Thanksgiving Break!
Easily Differentiate Your Parade Balloons Project

🆘 Supporting Students
- Complete only a few portions of the project planning with your students, then jump ahead to the balloon-making activity.
- Provide a teacher sample to show students examples of project planning and sketching.
