Jamestown 400th Birthday is great. I can't imagine living during that time.
I thought that this was a fun thing to do and more interactive than I thought it would be. Although I would not like to be a Jamestown colonist! The reason that I would not like to be a Jamestown colonist is it would be way too hard to make such life or death chocies.

The Jamestown adventure was a pretty good adventure. It was fun to be a colonist. Yes I can survive, because I can grow crops.

What I learned on the Jamestown web site is how to live in Jamestown back then.I like the web site because its a great way to learn about Jamestown.I also think I can survive Jamestown because I had learned how to live there in Jamstown.sc
I couldn't live in Jamestown becuase.I woudn't know how to hunt or go fishing or I woudn't know how to attack the Indians. I woudnt feel good up in the Englands close and the Powhatans close.

I think this website is cool because you get to expierence what life was like in 1607.I think I could've done a good job in jamestown. j.g.
The Jamestown adventure was so much fun because it tells you so much stuff. The fun thing about it is that you can play a game about surviving in Jamestown.
I think that the Jamestown web quest was fun because it teaches me about how to be alive in 1607. It also shows me that every body needs to work and it tells me that the settlers like to chew on tobacco.It teachs me that being a captain is hard work like you need to take care of your settlers if they are sick and you need to know the way to go to Virginia.

you need food {fish,corn} to survive. You need to also make friends whith the Powhatan tribe. I like the games and I know I woud have lived if I were really there back then.
Being a colonist must have been easy to me but hard for them!!! That is what I have laerned!

Jamestown is really cool!!! I think the website that we first went on was great! Jamestown seems like a really cool place. It has many great,fun,and exciting things to do. I probably wouldn't want to be a colonist because it seems like it would be a lot of hard work and I probably wouldn't survive myself. So this is what I think of Jamestown,Virginia!!!

I have learned about Jamestown,Virginia.I have learned that Jamestownwas a poor choice to live in a marshy area to live.There is also no gold there in Virginia.Maybe I can suvive there if the gentelmen would work like the other colonists would work.Besides if I were the Governor of Jamestown I would pick a nice place to live for all the colonists.

I think that I would have lived in Jametown in 1607. And I would love it.It cool to see how Jametown people live in 1607.

I thought it was fun and interesting.I loved being the captin of Jamestown,picking the location, chosing the tings to grow and to hunt,and picking a bilding to make. J C
What I learned about the life about as colonist is that you must help the people gather the food .But also you must trade with Powhatan to get the food and make friends with the Powhatan.

I think this website is cool because you can learn about the starving time . and i liked being the captian of jamestown cause you got to build a small castle . M.C
I think this adventure is neat but the colonist must had a lot of hard work.I dont think I could survive with all that work.

I have learned about not giving the English a lot for corn. They will get tired of eating corn and die of not eating. I learned not to settle at the wetland because there were mosquitos. B.T.W
I learned that the colonist sufferd after they left England at sea.I think that it was exciting to be a colonist but after I learned about how much they sufferd, I realized that they had alot of guts.

What we learned about the Jamestown settlers is that they survived a brutal voyage and landed. When they got there they managed to survive the Indian attack and the settlers who died from diseases. We think we would not have survived because there was no food to eat, no safe shelter and clothing.
B. S. and A.J
I think they had a hard time with the food and some of the men did not want to work. And some colonist died because of a disease called malaria and some died of starvation.

The Jamestown adventure was a good adventure to enjoy .I really enjoyed going through the adventure .Building and trying to make the colonists better was a big help.They needed food,wealth,shelter,and workers.If I lived there I would need the same thing .Back then was much harder.Not a lot of people survived.School was hard, too.School was not like modern days.They did not have books and notebooks.I learned that they had a hard time surviving.
VH
