Yesterday in class we received a sheet with the colonies on
it. After filling in the correct states we took a few notes. New England was
established by the puritans who were seeking religious freedom. The Middle
Colonies were established as the proprietary colonies, which is land given out
to friends or the kings. Lastly, the Southern Colonies established as business
colonies to make money and slavery become the foundation for their economy.
After this we received a reading on George Washington’s French and Indian War.
After reading this we went over it and summarized what happened. In this reading, After
Washington won an early victory against the French, he prepared for a
counter-attack. These are the first few battles in the French and Indian War.
The British eventually won after some earlier losses. Today in class we went to
the lab and made a slide/PowerPoint on our topic for the Edcafe, I got the
Boston Tea party.
