Grades 1-3: Preparing for Plymouth Plantation

This week, students in grades K-5 will be visiting Plymouth Plantation.  Today, we will explore the website, take a virtual trip using Google Earth, view a slideshow of some of the highlights of Plymouth Plantation and learn how to talk like a pilgrim!

Click here to view a Pilgrim Village and the slideshow (If you have problems viewing, open in Safari)

Click here to print worksheet that goes along with the slideshow.

"Good Morrow"
 "How Do You Fare, Goodwife?"

The Pilgrims talked a little differently than we do today. If you visit the Museum's 17th-Century English Village, you will notice that the townspeople say words you know in a funny way, or even say some words you don't know at all! That's because they are speaking in 17th-century English, not 21st-century modern English.  Click here to learn more!
