The Colonial Regions

New England Colonies The New England Colonies were: Massachusetts Rhode Island Connecticut New Hampshire

New England Colonies Settled by: Basics: Settlers came primarily from England – many Puritans with very strict religious laws and strong work ethic. Basics: Small towns grew up around larger port cities that were ideal for shipping goods and products in and out of the colonies.

New England Colonies Climate Terrain Economy Cold Short growing season Rocky, hilly land, suitable only for small farms and family crops Economy Because farming was not ideal, settlers relied on fishing, whaling, and shipbuilding to provide for their families.

Middle Colonies The Middle Colonies were: New York New Jersey Delaware Pennsylvania

Middle Colonies Settled by: Basics: Settlers of the Middle colonies were primarily English, but there was also a strong presence of Dutch, German, and Scots-Irish. More diverse than any other colony (think of NYC today!) Basics: The colony was a combination of rural farm areas, small towns, and cities.

Middle Colonies “America’s breadbasket” Climate Terrain Economy Temperate Longer growing seasons Terrain Rich soil and huge wheat fields gave the middle colonies the nickname “America’s breadbasket” Economy Farming, manufacturing, mining, shipping and textiles

Southern Colonies The Southern Colonies were: Maryland Virginia North Carolina South Carolina Georgia

Southern Colonies Settled by: Basics: The Southern colonies were inhabited mostly by English, African, and Scots-Irish. Basics: Few towns. Large plantations were common. Settlers grew tobacco, rice, cotton, sugar, and indigo. Plantation owners purchased slaves to harvest crops. As the plantation system grew, slavery spread throughout the region.

Southern Colonies Climate Terrain Economy Hot and humid Longer growing season Terrain Tidewater Region Vast Coastal Plain areas Economy Farming, large plantations Forest products (naval stores)

What can you offer newcomers? With a partner create a Top 10 List that highlights the positive characteristics of your assigned colony. You want to attract new investors and colonists to your colonial region. What can you offer newcomers? *What types of jobs would be available for them? *What types of communities would they live in? (cities, small towns, the countryside) *What would the climate be? *Which groups of people make up the rest of the population? *What role does religion play in the region? (is there religious freedom?) *Which colonies can they choose from that make up your region?

What can you offer newcomers? With a partner create a Top 10 List that highlights the positive characteristics of each region. The list will be used to attract new investors and colonists to each region. What can you offer newcomers? What types of jobs would be available for them? What types of communities would they live in? (cities, small towns, the countryside) What would the climate be? Which groups of people make up the population? What role does religion play in the region? (is there religious freedom?) Which colonies can they choose from that make up your region?
