The Story of Jamestown Powerpoint
This powerpoint summarizes the story of Jamestown, the first English colony. My students love reading along and clicking through the colorful pictures illustrating the story.
The words are lyrics to accompany the song Jamestown, Virginia by Classroom Classics, but the powerpoint can be used with or without the music.
Hope you enjoy!
