If I were to start a colony, I would need to make many strategic decisions in order for the colony to succeed and thrive. I would need to choose who to bring, what to bring, how the colony should be governed, where it should be located, and how to get it to expand and flourish. Every action will impact the colony, so every choice made will need a strong reason behind it. The first decision I would have to make when starting colony is to choose what kind of people I should bring that will…

Adrenaline rushed through my tensed body as though I inched toward the edge of a cliff ready to jump off. Governor Hutchinson just rejected our plea to send the Dartmouth back to England, and everyone in Boston couldn’t take much more of England’s petty games of taxation and their seemingly unlimited power over the colonies. Once the governor’s answer came to everyone at the Old South Meetinghouse, I think we all felt something needed to be done to send a message to England that we had enough…

season at Los Gatos High School in the winter. I have learned what I am really passionate about by trying out multiple different sports and activities to see which one fits me best. I am also very interested in photography. On the shadow day I saw a group of students walking around with cameras and taking pictures of many things, and it looked unique and interesting. I take pictures about everyday of things I find beautiful or interesting. Photography makes me happy and I am very passionate…

However, the border areas of Massachusetts were subject to numerous raids by the Native Americans living in the area before the English came over, and it was no different for the town of Lancaster. Rowlandson’s husband had been off to request aid from Boston, the largest city in the colony, to help defend against the Native Americans when, ironic as it is, Lancaster was attacked by a Native American force. Rowlandson herself was captured, and she…

world’s strongest navy at the time. The colonists were able to defeat the British for three reasons: their will to fight, the timing and situation, and foreign aid. The sparks for conflict began in Boston Massachusetts. Before Britain had royal governors in the colonies, the first settlers in Boston created the Mayflower Compact. This document planted the seeds for a self-ruling government, which is America’s political system today. Soon after King George assigned governors to the colonies,…

Of course that is true! But more than that he is a man worthy of remembering for his many accomplishments and important role in the 17th century. But to clearly identify John Winthrop let us know what the puritans were. The Puritans were a group of English Reformed Protestants in the 16th and 17th centuries who sought to purify the Church of England from Roman Catholic practices. Well, John Winthrop was one of these puritans yet he was wealthy and wanted more to do with this world. He is one…

that just 50 years ago people lived in a racially divided America. So how did we end the racial divide in our school system? Especially in the white dominated cities such as Boston. I decided to research on how schools integrated in Boston. I came across a topic called Boston Busing crisis. I had no knowledge of what the Boston Busing crisis was, so I decided to google it and found out that busing was a part of the United States’ federal judge Wendell…

The name Massachusetts comes from the Indian tribe, the Massachusett, an Algonquian tribe living in the area of Massachusetts bay. “at the great hill” or “at the range of hills” is its translation, referring to…
