It could be the Pilgrims and Native Americans. Since Thanksgiving has its roots in the meeting of these two groups, in a 2nd grade comprehension story, they might be the main characters. They would be shown sharing food and having a friendly time together. This is a simple way to introduce the historical part of Thanksgiving to young kids.
We can learn about the importance of gratitude. Thanksgiving is all about being thankful, and in a 2nd grade story, it might show simple things like being thankful for family, friends, and food.
I don't know the '2nd grade story' well enough to say who the main characters are. It could be students, teachers, or even pets that belong to second - graders.
Once upon a time in second grade, we had a Thanksgiving play. I was a little pilgrim. We made paper turkeys and told stories about the first Thanksgiving. We learned that the pilgrims and Native Americans shared a big feast. It was so much fun.
When I was in 2nd grade for Thanksgiving, our teacher read us a story about a little girl who was lost during the first Thanksgiving but was found by kind Native Americans. They took her in and shared their food with her. After that, we had a Thanksgiving party in the classroom. We played games, sang songs about Thanksgiving, and ate some delicious pumpkin pie. It was a really happy and educational time for all of us in 2nd grade.
I'm not sure as I don't know the specific story. It could be kids like a group of friends having an adventure, or it might be a family with a mom, dad and a child.
I don't know as I haven't read the specific story. But usually in a 4th grade story, the main characters could be kids, a teacher, or a pet.
The main character is of course the turkey. There might also be some other animals like squirrels or birds that play important roles in the story.
Since we don't really know the '2nd grade sh story', the main characters could be a group of second - grade friends. They might be named things like Tommy, Susie, and Billy. Or perhaps there's a special teacher character like Mr. Johnson who helps the kids through different situations in the story. There could also be a class pet, like a hamster named Fluffy, that the kids all love and interact with.
It could be that there are also some human characters who interact with the bees in the story. Maybe a child who discovers a beehive and observes the bees. So, the main characters could be the child and the bees in the 2nd grade bee story.
Simple things like making hand - drawn cards for family. Maybe a story about helping mom cook a Thanksgiving dish like mashed potatoes.
