Jamestown Virtual Colony
Clifford Bennett, Director; Raymond C. Jones, Asst. Director, Curry School of Education, U. of Virginia.
Useful resources for teaching the founding and settlement of Jamestown colony in Virginia. This site offers a series of lesson plans around four themes. “Corporate Colonization” covers the establishment of the London Company, colonial charters, and background to English colonization of the New World. “Development of Government” reviews the economic and social conditions in England that motivated many to migrate to America and the rights of Englishmen. “Economic Matters” discusses the economic goals of colonization, hardships and successes settlers experienced, and development of a tobacco and slave economy in Virginia. “Organization of Society” outlines cultural differences between Indians and English settlers, Indian/white relations, and the roles of religion and women in Virginia. The final section, “Broader Themes of Jamestown”, provides general information on geography, competition among European powers for colonization of the New World, and the evolution of Virginia society. Each section contains lesson objectives, outlines, plans, and an annotated bibliography of helpful scholarly works. There are links to 13 online exhibits and ten sites for primary documents. For elementary school teachers looking for creative teaching ideas, this is an extremely useful site.
