THE UNIT IN 7 NUGGETS:
*This unit covers the founding of the English colonies on the eastern coast of North America.
*When England defeated the Spanish Armada in 1588, it erased the stronghold Spain held on New World exploration.
*Now other nations like England, France, and the Netherlands, had confidence to explore the parts of the New World that Spain and Portugal had not yet claimed.
*In North America, England explored the east coast of the new land, sending hundreds of ships across the Atlantic to create a new life and eventually 13 colonies.
*In the New England colonies, many colonists traveled here to gain religious freedom.
*In the Middle Colonies, people from many nations arrived to find welcoming communities and strong trade opportunities.
*In the Southern Colonies, a difficult beginning quickly turned to a flourishing economy based on great soil, moderate climate, and the use of slavery.
