RATIONALE

In reviewing her notes before writing the history of Pearl Harbor, Angela is using
facts to create a historical narrative. Jane is collecting facts about Native
Americans when she travels to the Smithsonian to view photographs. By placing
himself in the mindset of the 1800s, Seymour is attempting to remain objective
and remove his 21st century biases from his study of the 1800 presidential
election. These are all tasks historians engage in when they write history.

RATIONALE

Recall that the Jamestown Colony was established by the Virginia Company of
London, a joint-stock company. Investors in the company hoped to find gold or
silver, or other potentially valuable natural resources. As a result, most settlers to
Jamestown were men and boys. On the other hand, Massachusetts was settled
by Puritan families, including men, women, and children, who were seeking
freedom to practice their religion without state interference.
