Leading Ideas and Biblical Principles

[list type=”arrow”]

• History is HIS Story – God’s story of love, mercy, and redemption through Christ.
  • He made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ. — Ephesians 1‍:‍9-10
• God’s providential hand governs and times all events and provides for His Creation according to His plan and purposes.
  • The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands.  And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else. From one man he made all the nations, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he marked out their appointed times in history and the boundaries of their lands. God did this so that they would seek him and perhaps reach out for him and find him, though he is not far from any one of us.- Acts 17: 24 – 27

Lesson One Assignments:

Activity while reading: Instead of answering questions and narrating in this unit, you will be constructing a chart. This chart will show the various colonies being discussed in the unit and the differences found between them. On the left hand side of your chart should be listed each colony being studied. Across the top of the chart should be a column for each of the following categories: founder, religion, purpose of founding, challenges faced, key people, key events. As you read each article in this Unit, be sure to fill out the chart as you read.
• Review the vocabulary, then read the articles: How Quakers First Came to New England and The Founding of Connecticut and War with the [Native American], pages 7 – 13.
• Define the vocabulary words in the context of the reading and put the word and its definition in the vocabulary section of your history notebook.
