They named some of the children after having one of these. -Pick a virtue that describes you!
Leadership and sacrifice ~Squanto possessed many of these positive virtues. ~He was captured by many early settlers yet that did not stop him from helping the pilgrims when they came to America ~He was important for the pilgrims survival because he spoke English so he was a translator for the pilgrims to the native American tribes. He also helped the pilgrims to learn to hunt and fish on his land. ~He died in 1622
Two Cultures meet Samoset, a Native from the Monhegan tribe in Maine who spoke English, walked into Plymouth on March 16, 1621. Samoset returned to Plymouth on March 22. He brought Massasoit with him. Massasoit was a Pokanoket Wampanoag sachem (leader). Governor Bradford and Massasoit signed a peace treaty. Squanto, the only surviving member of the Patuxet tribe, also came to visit. Squanto and Hobbamock lived at Plymouth Plantation. They helped the colonists to gather food, plant corn, find their way in the wilderness and to understand the native people.

The “Fortune” lands In November, 1621 the ship the Fortune landed at Plymouth with 35 new colonists. The original Pilgrims had barely enough food for themselves, and little to spare for more people. This is when conflict around camp begin to arise as the new settlers were not compromising with the pilgrims. Example of Christmas day
Survival As the winter began it was hard for the pilgrims to live day to day. After conflict began with the new settlers and the native Americans the colony began to fall apart. The main cause of death when the winter came was: Starvation: Crops could not grow in the cold, and the pilgrims were still learning how to hunt and where to hunt so many ended up starving to death Freezing to death Reflection question: think of everything you need to survive day to day, especially in Wisconsin? How does this compare to what the pilgrims had in the winter.
Disease When the pilgrims came to the new world they also brought disease. They ended up spreading the plague to many native Americans. The main tribe they hit when they came to America was the Patuxet tribe. This was the tribe that Squanto lead, he was one of the few that survived.
Trading In order for the pilgrims to make it through both winter and the spread of disease they relied on the neighboring native American groups to be able to help them trade to necessities they needed for survival. Trading activity
The Mayflower Compact The mayflower compact was written by the Separatists as a governing document for the Plymouth colony It Signed on November 11th by 41 Colonists This document was made to form a compromise among the settlers and the new to come What are other governing documents?
Peace treaty The agreement, in which both parties promised to not "doe hurt" to one another, was the first treaty between a Native American Tribe and a colonist group. According to the treaty, if a Wampanoag broke the peace, he would be sent to Plymouth for punishment and likewise the pilgrims would be sent to the Wampanoag’s. The treaty lasted 50 years Do you compromise with your family and friends? What are things you can do to compromise besides signing a treaty? http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/the-pilgrim-wampanoag-peace-treaty
Story telling Stories were told in the new land to be able to pass down morals and lesson learned living in the new land. The only way that the people who died would live on is through the families telling their story and passing it on, that way they could live forever What are some of your families stories?
Writing letters Just like story telling the pilgrims sent letters home to the family members they left behind in their homeland. What would you tell your family back at home if you traveled to America?
