In groups of two, students will choose a colony and create a poster of that colony's founding.

Things that need to be included on the poster:

1) Date of founding
2) Reason for founding
3) When the colony attained self-government

5) Important people connected with the colony (such as founders)
6) Map(s)
7) Pictures - drawings of the earlier colonies
