Where Do We Go from Here?
Now that you have done some research into the conditions of colonial Georgia, you will have two responsibilities.
First, complete the following graphic organizer (See "Assessment") using the information you have gathered.
Second, keeping in mind the identity you chose at the beginning of the activity, compose two short writings in the form of diary entries written by your colonial character. One of these entries should be set at the beginning of your life in the colonies, based on what you expect life in the colonies to be like. The second should take place 10+ years later, to describe whether or not your character found success in the colonies, died, or had to return to England. What conditions in the colonies led to these outcomes? Remember, you are writing AS YOUR CHARACTER! First person voice!
