v Let's start by looking at a map of the original 13 colonies.  Can you find all 13 colonies?

v Complete the map activity about the 13 colonies that is attached to your packet.   This activity tests your skill at being able to read a map and understand the basic compass directions.  Click on the word map if you would like to see an online version of the map.  Put your answers on the work sheet.  (The packet will be collected and graded!)

v Now we are going to look at each colony.  To keep all of the information organized there is a chart to complete.  As you go to each WEB site, fill in any information you find.

       Here are some sites to use:
       New England Colonies, Middle Colonies. Southern Colonies

v Name some of the products and crops of the Southern Colonies? ________________________________________________

v Name some of the products and crops of the Middle colonies? ________________________________________________

v Name some of the products and crops of the New England colonies? ___________________________________________________

v Now let's look at a web page created by three students,
      Cam Crockett, Melissa Hall and Jerrad Nelson. 
      See if this site adds any new information to your chart.

v Here are some quick facts about the colonies.  They may give you new information too.

v If you had been living in colonial days, in which colony would you have liked to live in and why?  For this activity you will email your response.  Just click on
