Lizard class students have been learning about the beginning colonies in America. So far we have learned about the Roanoke colony and it's mysterious disappearance, as well as the Jamestown colony and the harsh awakening the colonists had to experience. Jamestown started off with pretty well until they ran out of supplies and couldn't find food through the terrible winter. Many perished and some who died were theorized to have been eaten to keep the others alive. The Jamestown people also resorted to eating their dogs, horses, and stealing food from the local tribes. later on we will be comparing what we learn about Jamestown to Disney's story in Pocahontas. Class is starting to get really interesting and fun. I can't wait to see what Liz has in store for us the rest of the semester!
