Class Recap 10/1, 10/2

Yesterday in class, our main discussion featured the original colonies and what they were good for. The colonies were split into three different regions, and each region was known for a different reason. New England was known specifically for being established for religious freedom. It is strange that the reason America was established in the very first place was to get away from the controlling religion of Great Britain. From that sole reason, a world-dominant nation was born. The other regions were developed for slavery and     for land of the friends of the king. It was interesting to think about the different ways that the regions were known as, and how they are distinguished by today. Today, we learned about the story of George Washington and what he did for our country and why he is important to our country. It was cool to go into depth with his life and go beyond the basics. At the end of class, we were assigned a topic for edCafe. All in all, the past two days were overall successful.
