We’ve just finished reading a few pages of Mourt’s Relation, one of the primary sources about and by the original Mayflower passengers. We “translated” the old words and strange spelling to figure it all out. Then we each took a line or two and illustrated it. Now each student has scanned in his/her illustration, saved it, and then put it on his/her blog. That’s c15ss’s above (as her blog isn’t working right at the moment). Do check the other blogs out to see the kids’ Mourt illustrations. They are wonderful! (And remember that that the spelling is all exactly as it was in 1622!)
