Sammy & Amber say that game was cool and awesome but the settlers had to really think about where they were going to live and what they were
going to do.
We have learned that the settlers need to be careful about where they build there fort.If you build your fort in the coast you could probably die because we are surrounded by Indians.
We learned that we should have better protection and better food supply.We also learned that where you put your fort matters a lot and you shouldn't look for gold because it is fools gold.Also you should hunt and fish more.Living in Jamestown was tough but thankfully we made it.

We learned how to stay alive and what to plant by the help of the Powhatan Indians.
What we have learned that people at Jamestown suffered. They should have planted crops instead of searching for gold. Wealth isn't everything!
Alex H. and Alex L. learned that settlers had to choose the right spot to grow food,hunt for deer,and keep the colonists healthy.We know if we were those colonists we would all have to learn to survive.We also learned that the colonists had to build a strong town,village,or a wooden fort,also you need the right food like corn,wheat,and instead of tobacco you should plant sassafras.That's what we learned.

We learned that we would have made good governors. We have made a huge success in our making of Jamestown. We have learned that survival is better than looking for wealth, like the 1606 Jamestown settlers.
I say the game was good and fun but the settlers had to really really think where they were going and that the weren't just going to spend all there time looking for gold.
We have learned that the settlers needed to be careful with the choices that they made.They didn't plant corn,tobacco and wheat.Jamestown settlers had to go threw difficult

in the woodland area.

We learned that they should have planted sassafras,corn,wheat,tobacco,and they should have sent part of a group to search for gold and another group to go hunting.
We learned that trading with the Indians was a good idea, because we got several bunches of corn. We learned that planting 3 different crops was also a good idea. We learned that hunting and fishing was also a good idea. We were successful because we had many good food supplies and we offered to trade.
We have learned that the Powhatan people can be really nice if we don't attack. We also learned that they hared time to choose were to they wanted to stay.
We learned that building a town was not a good idea because it does not protect us from attackers.We also learned that the men needed to work just like the women.
We have learned that the farther south you go you have a better life.We have also leaned it was hard to survive and we would not be able to live back then.The game was fun!
We learned that Jamestown should have made someone go build a wooden fort in the best place to plant crops and good hunting place and no wet land.
We learned that trading was a good way to make peace with the Powhatan Indians.We also learned that hunting and farming were a good way to keep us healthy and our colony to succeed.
