Education

Education
By Riley
Good morning senator. I will show you the library. First I will show you how to make a book. Before books were made on long scrolls made of papyrus. It is kind of paper. It was hard to fold scrolls out and in. We had to create the book. We flick thru the pages fast and we save hours. It easier to carry a few books then a bundle of scrolls. You should try it. Next I will show you who comes to our school. Only the boys that are rich go to school. They start going to school at six years old. The teacher beats them if they don’t remember their lessons. The teacher is a slave named a pedagogue. Girls don’t go to school they get taught by their mom. Thank you senator for letting me show you the library and school.

Delaware

I will tell you about the colony Delaware. First I will tell you about who came to Delaware first, why they came, and when. In 1621 the Dutch got to Delaware because the king sent them. Then the Swedish got there and beat the Dutch and then England arrived and beat Sweden. In 1681 William Penn became the ruler because king Charles 2 put him in charge. Also I will tell you 3 facts about the colony Delaware. Delaware was in the middle Atlantic. Maryland was to the south and to the north was New Jersey and Pennsylvania. In 1682 William Penn’s constitution stated that children had to learn a practical skill of trade. In school they had to read by 12. Almost 100 years later during the revolution a major battle happened here. George Washington’s troops where in the battle of Trenton. In conclusion know you now about the colonel Delaware.
