Positive- There were multiple people exploring and they all had a goal in mind. 

Negative- Getting wealth could cause some conflict between the group and with having a group they might not agree on everything and that could cause conflict.

GLORY- Smith was part of a group that discovered the first British colony in North America. Also when he was in Jamestown he was able to become a major part of it, which being the person who helped with supplying  water, food, and other resources.

Positive- The group was able to discover new land and create a new colony from it.

Negative- The colony had very little population and John Smith was almost killed due to conflict there. Once Smith left to go to England he couldn’t go back.

GOD- He didn’t do it for God.

Positive- There wasn’t any argument over religions.

Negative- New ideas weren’t spread

The positive effects of this were that it expanded land  for Britain and it was a new discovery. 

Negative effects- This land already had other colonies in it.

2. Jamestown was already home to multiple Native communities

Positive- This wasn’t completely new land that they didn’t have any clue about, obviously it had to be stable enough to build a community

Negative- The Native communities food supply was scarce and they weren’t very open-minded to sharing their land.

3. Originally the population dwindled due to diseases and starvation. 

Positive- There is nothing really positive about starvation and diseases, but this also means that they had to work together to make this colony survive.

Negative- People would die from diseases and obviously starvation isn’t positive either.

“He that will not work shall not eat”

These two sources are different because the first quote is talking about his younger life and how all about what the wars taught him, while the second quote is when he was in Jamestown talking to the people about how everyone has to contribute, he clearly has beliefs that you have to work for what you want. ]]> 2018-10-30 14:15:56 UTC https://padlet.com/22lecka/q9emflng0w4q/wish/298516509 22lecka https://padlet.com/22lecka/q9emflng0w4q/wish/298518509 In the early 1600’s John Smith helped discover the first permanent British colony, Jamestown. This started a new town and community, with this new colony it involved a lot of cultural blending because the land had belonged to Native Americans before they got there. This also brought diseases and starvation to this colony and from that the population kept decreasing. 

(They brought food and resources to the new land for the people) 

How this affects the world today:
This affected the world in a major way this was the first permanent British colony in America and that would change a lot because there was new land for people and more people would want to explore to discover more land.

When John Smith went back to England he brought back many things that had to do with the foods, plants, language, and Religion of Virginia, he was able to share this information by writing multiple books including: The general history of Virginia, The true Travels, adventures, and observations of John Smith, and more.

How this affects the world today: 
Nobody had really known about Virginia and really the United States in general. These books would teach people about Virginia and these books could also encourage more people to explore.

Ex. When John Smith traveled to Jamestown they (the group John Smith traveled with) invaded land that had already belonged to Native American colonies

This is negative because trying to take over new land can cause conflict between the people who are coming and the people who were already there.

One of the effects of colonization was discovering new land and claiming it. 

Ex. Christopher Columbus sailed the ocean and discovered new land. 

This is positive because discovering new places will bring lots of different things. (Gold, Glory, God)

Having too many new people coming into the colonization 

Negative- Too many people in a colony could lead to lack of resources needed, starvation, and diseases will spread easier.

I really liked this book because it showed a different perspective of WWII. A lot of the books I've read about around the WWII time period are about what Germany and Hitler did to the Jews and other people. This talks about the other side of the war and what Stalin was doing to Lithuanians and other countries he wanted to take over. This book is about a 15 year old girl who is sent to different work camps all around Siberia while Stalin takes over her home. 

I would recommend this book to any who enjoys reading historical fiction or has any interest in World War Two.
