Timelines & Maps

We discovered this website: On the Trail of Captain John Smith: A Jamestown Adventure when we were talking about Jamestown the other day. You remember that we had been rowing Down, Down the Mountain, right? And Down, Down the Mountain is set in the Blue Ridge Mountains, which cut through Virginia. So, that's why we were talking about early Virginia.

Today we'll put that first English colony, Jamestown, on the timeline we started LAST YEAR! We haven't done anything with the timeline this year. It's been hard to know where to put things in the new house and where we can spread out and work. I also need to get the big map back up on the wall, though Mane does very well with all the small maps we have. She's kind of a map nut. I like them, too. There's something adventurous about a map.
