Next Thursday my class will be going to Plimoth Plantation. I expect to learn a lot, and it should be a lot of fun, because how could you not have fun in the place where the Pilgrims landed? We’re going to sleep there too. We’re even going to get to go on a replica of the Mayflower! I’m very excited about the trip. In this place, Samoset visited the Pilgrims, Squanto helped them, a peace treaty was made, a Thanksgiving feast was devoured, and much, much more that we don’t know.
My Writing Skills Homework Assignment
I am in Edinger House, Dalton, and from about December, 2006 to about February, 2007, my house* has been studying forced immigration. We did a lot of research, like reading a book about the Amistad Rebellion, (a slave rebellion that took place on a slave ship called the Amistad) reading a not-yet-finished book by Ms. Edinger, our teacher, and even inviting a poet called Natasha Trethewey to come and share some poems about the Amistad!
The Amistad was a slave ship, and the rebellion started when a slave-to-be named Cinque found a loose nail, picked all the locks with it, and decided he would rather die a gallant death than live in slavery for the rest of his days.
So he and all the rest of the men attacked the cruel white men, and won the battle. But they all had to go through quite a few more hardships before they were allowed to go home. Finally, they did.
I liked studying forced immigration. I give it 5 stars. It’s a very interesting subject because the descriptions in this particular subject happen to be extremely informative and everything we learn is very exciting.
I think we studied forced immigration to learn how lucky we are to be free from the start of our lives in the past to the end of them in the future, and not living our precious lives as some unfortunate African people did.
