Roanoke, The Lost Colony

In Language Arts class we are beginning a new writing assignment based on the story, Roanoke The Lost Colony An Unsolved Mystery From History. The book is written by Jane Yolen.

Today in class we watched a video and visited a website which gave us additional information, and at sometimes, conflicting information to what we already thought we knew.  I have included the two links so that students can do some additional research if they would like.

We will begin the actual writing piece next week.
