Jamestown,Virginia

In social studies we were learning about Jamestown,Virginia. We were learning lots of interesting facts. The English settlers from England came to Jamestown. They were supposed to be looking for gold, but when they got there they only saw green swampy land and Powhatan Indians .

They were not friendly to each other. The English settlers had to barter and work cooperatively with each other.

John Smith was the person in charge for the English settlers. Pocahontas was the daughter of Chief Powhatan.

The English settlers made a wooden fort that was shaped like a triangle. One day the Powhatan Indians caught John Smith on their land. The Powhatan Indians got mad. The Powhatan Indians made a trial and was going to cut his head off. Pocahontas heard the sound of the drums and run as fast as she could to see what was going on. When she got there she saw John's face. Just as the person was about to cut his head off she ran to him and put her head on his head. The Chief Powhatan was surprised. He told her to get off. she wouldn't listen. Then finally he said to the Indians that he was free. That's when Pocahontas met John Rolfe and got married.

It lead 8 years of peace between the Powhatan Indians and the English settlers. Pocahontas,John Rolfe and their son Thomas went to England. When they were ready to go back to Virginia Pocahontas got smallpox and died. This was the best subject I ever had in social studies.
