Salem Witch Trials - Teacher Tips - DiscoverySchool.com. Slavery Images. The 1,280 images in this collection have been selected from a wide range of sources, most of them dating from the period of slavery.
This collection is envisioned as a tool and a resource that can be used by teachers, researchers, students, and the general public - in brief, anyone interested in the experiences of Africans who were enslaved and transported to the Americas and the lives of their descendants in the slave societies of the New World. We would like to emphasize that little effort is made to interpret the images and establish the historical authenticity or accuracy of what they display. To accomplish this would constitute a major and different research effort. Individual users of this collection must decide such issues for themselves. Mayflower and the Mayflower Compact. The Journey Would you have liked to travel on a small ship with more than 100 other people, all of their belongings, and possibly some farm animals – for 66 days?
That’s what the Pilgrims did in the year 1620, on a ship called Mayflower. Mayflower set sail from England in July 1620, but it had to turn back twice because Speedwell, the ship it was traveling with, leaked. After deciding to leave the leaky Speedwell behind, Mayflower finally got underway on September 6, 1620.In the 1600s, the ocean was full of dangers. Ships could be attacked and taken over by pirates. Although Mayflower did not sink, a few of these things actually did happen! Although many people were seasick on the voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, only one person died.
One baby was born during the journey. Finally, in March 1621, there were enough houses that everyone could live on land. Back to Top.

It’s a simple question — perhaps so basic that it’s been overlooked.
How old were the key participants of the American Revolution? Authors often reveal the age of a particular soldier, politician or other main character in books about the Revolution, but I routinely find myself wondering about their peers at the same time. As it turns out, many Founding Fathers were less than 40 years old in 1776 with several qualifying as Founding Teenagers and Twentysomethings. The Living Room Candidate. The Living Room Candidate.
