Objectives
During this week the students will learn about the first people from another country who made contact with the Indians—first in the South and later with the Indians of Connecticut. The students will learn about the relationships between the Indians and the visitors, especially the Pilgrims, about how they helped each other, and about the first Thanksgiving celebration.
The teacher will introduce the unit by talking about the first English settlements in Virginia. (The illustration of immigration will become a basis for another subunit about slavery.)
Words to study: settlement, landed, natives, trifles, colony, friendship
