The Pilgrims stayed in an abandoned village whose original inhabitants had died of disease. Apex, you cheater
The Pilgrims adapted to life in North America in several ways. First, they made friends with the native Americans. The native Americans taught them to grow and eat corn. They adapted to cold weather by building square houses.
Well some people survived some people didn't. For the ones who did survived, they were pretty much lucky that they were able to get over the sickness and able to stay on a tiny boat that survived a storm.
Like the earlier settlers in Jamestown, the Pilgrims received life-saving assistance from local Native Americans. To the Pilgrims' great fortune, one of the Pokanokets, Squanto, spoke English, having earlier been captured by English traders and imprisoned in England for several years. Squanto served as the Pilgrims' interpreter and taught them how best to plant in their new home. Interaction between Native Americans and settlers was rarer in Massachusetts than in Virginia because the Native Americans of Massachusetts had previously suffered a plague that had decimated much of the population.

after enslaving the native Americans, they mainly stole their food and lived in their houses until new ones were built (by the slaves of course). but one big discovery that Britain didn't have was corn. corn was very abundant along with animal meat

The wanpanoag helped the pilgrims survive. they helped them with harvest, shelter, water, and hunting. this is also how Thanksgiving started.
an opinion about the first winter of pilgrims
Of the 102 passengers on the Mayflower, 2 died before landing at present-day Cape Cod. They spent the winter on the Mayflower, since they did not have housing, and after suffering scurvy, pneumonia and tuberculosis, only 53 were alive in the spring.45 of the 102 emigrants died in the first winter. By Thanksgiving there were only 53 people left to celebrate.
False because during the winter half of them died.
The Wampanoag Indians helped the pilgrims. It is believed that without the Indians, the pilgrims wouldn't have survived. Squanto specifically helped them. He taught them how to set corn and fertilize it, where to fish and where to forage for edible plants and fruit.
The village was empty because its original inhabitants had died of disease.
They were said to survive due to the Natives' (the Indians') help.
Indians helped them.
The amount of colonists that survived decreased to lower than 60
Approximately 50% of the Pilgrims perished over the first winter. Out of the original 102 colonists, only about 50 survived by the spring of 1621.

1/2 of the pilgrims survived the first winter
They have survived the first winter. There were only 4 women left of the 104 colonist who arrived left to cook the dinner.
Some didn’t. The first to go were children. They died of disease and other causes. When they first landed they lived on the ship until shelters could be built.

The Wampanoag tribe played a pivotal role in the Pilgrims' survival of their first winter in the New World. Thanksgiving did not become an official American holiday until the time of the Civil War, when Abraham Lincoln thought it was a way to bring people together. The Pilgrims arrived cold and sick; many members of their group did not survive the voyage. There were abandoned Native American settlements and burial grounds in the area and several Pilgrims tried to scavenge for food and supplies.
