Georgia

  1. I find it interesting that most of the graphics in this slide are drawn pictures which just shows that this was the only way of documenting the past before photographs.

  2. The history the group focused on really showed how different Georgia was from the other colonies. This made the presentation interesting.

  5. I enjoyed learning about how slavery was petitioned to be allowed in Georgia and was granted to this colony.

  6. I found it interesting to learn about Georgia because it is a state that I do not know much about. I know very little about it in today's times, so I know even less about it from the colonial time period.

  9. I thought it was interesting that even though it was the last of the colonies to be settled that communication across the state was very difficult.

  10. I found it really interesting how much later Georgia became a colony as opposed to the others. I also really enjoyed the old pictures in the presentation. They seemed to bring life to what the group was discussing because you were able to visualize it in its time period.

  11. The history of Georgie is very interesting. The fact that it was started as a retreat for inmates to get back on their feet and start over is interesting. What if they created something of the sort for inmates of today?

  12. I find it interesting that there was so little communication in Georgia. It must have been difficult for Georgia to keep up with the other colonies advancing because there was so little communication.

  13. It is interesting that Georgia was not very developed in the colonial times. They did not have schools, had wooden villages, and no major towns.

  14. I thought Georgia's lack of land ownership when it was first founded was interesting. How do you call your house a home when you don't own the land you live on?
