These past four days we did the following:
We had two starters:
Which colonial area would you have liked to have lived in? (New England, Middle, or Southern) Explain why-
Why do we celebrate Halloween?
The days around Halloween we discussed the Salem Witch Trials in more depth. We also briefly looked at the history of Halloween. We then learned about the great American author Washington Irving and looked at his story, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
The other days, we played Colonial Jeopardy and then we tested our knowledge of the three colonial areas by playing a colonial investment game - we will finish this game next time.
