On the heels of Thanksgiving, I thought I’d share what one of my  students learned after a few weeks of discussion and study about English settlements.

Before I do – just so you know – most of my students got this answer correct (yes, I’m deflecting responsibility for this student’s response). The correct answer: Pilgrims, Separatists. I can only surmise this student did not study and was probably doodling or talking to a neighbor instead of listening.
