Today we took notes on the three original colonies. We used a regular sheet of paper, turned it on its side and divided it into three columns. When then labeled the columns with Jamestown, Puritans, and Pilgrims. Ask me or another student for the notes. The quiz question for the day was:
1. What did the Puritans believe in?
2. What would you do if your government punished you for practicing/not practicing a religion?
We then read two primary documents that were given on the Puritans ships as they were traveling to America. The essential questions was, Were the Puritans selfish or selfless?
