Across the Atlantic
















As your first exploration, you will be discussing or blogging why colonists would want to move to America. Keep in mind that there are push and pull factors at work, we want to find out what motivated colonists to migrate. Try to imagine that you were a colonist traveling to the New World. What did traveling to the New World offer colonists?

The Arrival


I would like for all of you to share your ideas about
"The Arrival." Is the opening character leaving? If so, why, if not, why not? Are “push and pull” factors influencing this character's decisions?”

Mr. Castillo
