🎉 Hello, Young Historians! 🎉
Today, we’re going to step back in time to discover the exciting world of colonies! Are you ready? Let’s imagine we’re time travelers heading to the 1600s!
Close your eyes and picture this: You’re on a big, wooden ship sailing across the ocean. The salty air is in your hair, and all around you are your friends – fellow explorers! You are leaving your home and traveling to a new land where there are vast forests, tall mountains, and a great big ocean!
As you arrive at the new land, you see colorful tents and hear people speaking different languages. Some of them look just like you, while others wear unique clothes and have different traditions. This place is called a colony! Colonies are the new homes set up by people from far away countries.
Now that we’re all warm and cozy in our time travel imagination, let’s get creative! Each of you will get a piece of paper and some crayons. I want you to draw what your colony would look like. Think about:
After we finish our drawings, we will share them with the class. Don’t forget to think about how we can make our new colony a happy place for everyone!
Are you ready to learn more about the amazing stories of the colonies? Let’s dive into our lesson and see what adventures await us!
Get your crayons ready and let’s go, young explorers!
