Author: Kate Salley Palmer Book: Palmetto: Symbol of Courage City: Central, South Carolina Publisher: Warbranch Press, Inc. Date: 2005 Book Summary: This is a story about when the British sailed to Charleston Harbor with the hopes of capturing the colony of the South for the King of England. At Sullivan’s Island there stood a little fort which was built from sand and Palmetto Trees, and was only built with 3 walls! The battle ensues and against all odds the fort successfully defeats the British and defends the South. Setting: June 28, 1776 Sullivan’s Island, South Carolina as British warships sail towards Charleston Harbor Samantha SmigelSpring 2012 Fort Moultrie Walls Sergeant William Jasper Charleston Harbor 1776 Charleston Harbor 2012 Links to Primary Sources:

Isn’t it just a tree? Consider what a palmetto tree looks like. Complete a KWL chart before and after reading. – What do you already know about palmetto trees and their impact on the war? – What do you want to know about palmetto trees, and how it got to be on our state flag. – After reading complete the column about what you have learned about palmetto trees.

Would you take this leap of faith? When Sergeant William Jasper leapt over the fort walls to rescue the flag he took a risk running in front of enemy fire. In groups, role play what this scene would have been like for William Jasper. Discuss what he would have been feeling and thinking at that moment.

What’s changed in 236 years? Construct a Venn-Diagram comparing and contrasting the two maps. (Click on each to zoom in more)Venn-Diagram Pay attention to the changes in cities, and roads, and the similarities in landforms, oceans, and rivers.
