Fantastic, quality resource! Kiddos loved planning their own towns and applying the things they learned about the early colonies. Thank you!
Really fun project for studying the colonies and it looks great once completed.
LOVE this! I'm super excited to use this with my 8th graders this year. Thank you for including how to use this in my class, clear examples, and a step-by-step set of directions to get started! AWESOME! :)
I absolutely love this resource! My students loved creating their own colony with the detailed outline. It was so much fun to see them planning and collaborating during this process. They turned out beautifully!
