Lesson Plans

Name Description
A Whole New World: Colonizing America

In this lesson plan, students will be able to identify the geographic location of the countries the colonists came from. Students will also be able to analyze the physical and cultural characteristics of great regions and describe the colonial forms of governments established during the colonization of America.

Loyalist vs Patriot: You Choose

In this lesson, students will be able to distinguish the difference between a Loyalist and a Patriot. Students will also analyze why some colonists remained neutral throughout the colonization of America leading into the American Revolution, eventually being made to choose a side. Students will analyze both political perspectives, using geographic skills to locate the countries that a Loyalist and Patriot represent (using a map), and to determine why these groups were loyal to their respective ideologies.

Ahoy!,The New World.

Students will analyze colonial maps, holistic and regional, to recognize the geographic locations of US colonial settlements. They will describe the characteristics of each region and close by brainstorming the challenges and viewpoints each area might have encountered. Students will also review the language of the Mayflower Compact and assess how geographical characteristics would have influenced the creation of colonial governments.
