About this title

Synopsis

From the CORE KNOWLEDGE FOUNDATION, which brought you the popular “What Your ___ Grader Needs to Know” series. THE THIRTEEN COLONIES explores how three regions of English colonies in North America—Southern, Middle, and New England—developed differently. Early chapters focus on Jamestown, labor by indentured servants, and a growing reliance on enslaved workers. The book explores how religious motives influenced the founding of the New England colonies by the Pilgrims and Puritans, as well as the motives behind the founding of the Middle Colonies, with a focus on the Dutch in New York and the Quakers in Pennsylvania. Some chapters incorporate primary source documents and cross-curricular art and literature connections, including historically-informed imaginative narratives. Paperback. 111 pages. ** Part of the CORE KNOWLEDGE HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY (CKHG) series in world and American history and geography, integrating topics in civics and the arts. CKHG books offer engagingly written text with many color illustrations, maps, vocabulary sidebars, and a glossary. Related materials (Teacher Guides and Timeline Cards) are also published by the Core Knowledge Foundation. In general, CKHG books are appropriate for young readers from the upper elementary grades through middle school.
