Colonial America – pt 3 – Building the Colony

In class we are making models of our colonies and we finished! I’m so exited it looks great and my character ( Emma Watson ) is writing a lot about it here is one of the diary entries she wrote…

 

June 25 1774

We have finished building our colony! of course we will expand over time but for now it is perfect. Everyone has a good home we have a farm we have, meeting house, church, temple school and well, we also have a live stock stable a doctors office and a dock. We had many hardships that postponed the building process but we made it before winter! I can’t believe it! We did it!!! I’m so excited! This day can’t get any better!

Colonial America Pt – 2 – Persona

My name in the colony is Emma Watson and I am 14. I had a lovely life in England, and I had many friends, but I wanted to go on an adventure! I was longing for something new. So I went on the ship to New Fouresten (that’s the name of our colony).  I loathed the ship ride there but it gave me time to make friends, for we were all going to New Fouresten! When we got there I was so exited we were on a new land that very few walked on. It was a new adventure, the shores seemed to be lined with gold and the water sparkled before me, it was amazing! I am the apprentice of the governor and one day hope to become the governor of New Fouresten. As  the governors apprentice my job is to help the colony with there problems I will start with dreadful jobs then i shall get better jobs more important jobs. I will be working with my master until I am 21.  I have a few past times that I like to do with my friends such as horse back riding, hoop and stick and ring toss. Some of my jobs out side of apprenticeship were making meals and fetching water.
