We will be viewing videos and reading e-materials to add information to our notes and profiles of the three Colonial Regions. New England, Mid-Atlantic, and Southern. We will be able to add to our "picture" what the geography(land,water,climate), economy(how they made their money), and the political/social ways of life of each area.
I found some better videos. They are a little bit longer and the teacher is a little goofy, but they should help us finish off our notes. SO watch the ones in blue first...we'll come back to the 3 green ones later.
