Colonial Period Blog

Today in class we were assigned different periods in history. I was assigned the Colonial Period and read different articles about the period. One of the articles that I read to learn more about the Colonial Period was Of Plymouth Plantation by William Bradford. The article began with the Mayflower Compact of 1620. It described the voyage that the Pilgrim’s had to endure to reach the New World. From these articles we were to pick out important events, historical figures ect, to make a PowerPoint about. In US History we just completed our unit that talked about the Mayflower Compact. This article would have been helpful in writing our unit paper which had us compare two colonies, one of them being Plymouth.
