By order of the Church of England? Where are us Pilgrims going to practice our own religion?!!!!
A group named the Pilgrims wanted to break away from the Church of England for religious freedom. After moving to Holland, they wanted to sail to the new World instead
Where are we going to move to now?! We just wanted freedom for our religion
The Pilgrims started to set sail on the Mayflower. They originally planned start a colony in what is now modern day New York City
I can't wait to set sail on the Mayflower!
I wonder what the New World will be like...
Alright everyone. Come up and take a look at the Mayflower Compact document. It is for the better of our colony.
The colonists decided to create a compact for certain rules and laws of the colony. It was known as the Mayflower Compact
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh Boy! I already agree, I will sign.
Eventually, the Pilgrims landed in Plymouth. The colony was off to a rough start and half the colony died of diseases
WHAT DO WE DO NOW!!!
A Native American named Sqaunto started to help the Pilgrims survive by teaching them how to grow crops. The two groups signed a peace treaty
I am Sqaunto from the Wampanoag tribe. We would like to create peace and help you guys.
In November, the natives and Pilgrims gathered for a three day celebration feast. The holiday is now known as Thanksgiving
