Leaders of the Colony

Roger Williams, Anne Hutchinson, John Smith, and William Penn are all leaders of certain colonies in the New World. We thoroughly studied each to see what their reasons for coming were, their accomplishments and troubles while here, and their actions based on their beliefs. In fact, you have written a speech pretending that you are one (or a combination) of them and you are trying to invite colonists to your colony.

Questions for you:
1. Which person can you relate to most?
2. If you were to live in the colonial New world, whose colony would you go to and why?

Bonus questions:
1. What do you like most about homecoming?
2. Are you going to the game Friday night?

My answer to last week's question:
I would live in Colorado. I get such peace from being in the mountains. I love snow skiing, hiking, and sitting by the fireplace. The weather is wonderful in the summer...white water rafting is GREAT!!
