I have marked this poster for grades 3-5, but please read the topics below to help you decide if it will work for you.

Grab your media specialist, check books out from the library to have in class, use your social studies book, watch videos, go to the computer lab, etc. Use whatever resources you would like to have students fill in the information.

NOTE: Don't forget to check my store for a HUGE variety of poster activities..... get one for all the holidays and other topics, too.

This 13 Colonies poster activity has plenty of places for students to add their own creative touches with color.

The sections for the students to fill out as a writing activity are:

*Place for their name

* A colony is....

*First permanent settlement....

*picture of Jon Smith to color

*Color the colonies on the U.S. Map using colors listed

New England, Middle, Southern

*Name the Colonies that fit into each (New England, Middle, Southern)

*Tell About the Geography/Land in each

*Tell what life was like in each (NOTE: this will be brief facts due to space)

*How was life different for men and women?

Use as a center activity, homework project, partner activity, before standardized testing, part of a unit test review, etc. Also, it's perfect for a sub. project if you have already studied these topics. Use it in your classroom however you would like.
