If you need to use the textbook outside class, I have posted links below to some online versions of the text. Make SURE you are reading the pages that relate to YOUR assigned colony! It is pp 85-89 for Jamestown and pp 92-97 for Plymouth. If you need to use the subject book beyond Wednesday, it will be your job to get that done during a team time or study hall. The primary source readings and text review handout Primary Source readings and questions also are linked below in case you misplace the copy you got in class.

More About the Good Old Days: September 8 and 9, 2014
Okay, I am posting for two days at once. I like to think of it less as "being lazy" and more as "being efficient" ;). On Monday and Tuesday, you will continue to work with our range of sources (text, subject books, primary source readings) to find out how life fared for those brave early colonists who managed to make it through the first few years of struggle in North America. In addition to learning about the early colonists, I hope you will figure out that different kinds of sources have different messages to share with us, and that you can't count on any one source (no matter how thorough) to show us the whole picture. Think about the stories you shared with me, and how different people could have very different memories of the same event. It's not surprising that one source can't contain the whole picture about any topic.
