If You Lived In Williamsburg in Colonial Days Review



I'm teaching Early American History to Japanese adults who have an "elementary" level of English and virtually no experience in studying American history. The "If You Lived in ....." books targeted for US elementary school children is ideal for college students in Japan. Just the title causes discussion. eg. Why do you spell Willimasburg with ..burg but then spell Pittsburgh with "h"?




If You Lived In Williamsburg in Colonial Days Overview


A different time...
A different place...
What if you were there?

More than 200 years ago, two thousand people lived in the town of Williamsburg, Virginia.

If you lived back then

What would your house look like?
What games and sports would you play?
Would you go to school?
What happened when you were sick or hurt?
This book tells you what it was like to grow up in colonial days, before there was a United States of America.

Great Book for Early US History - A. Allen - Ardmore, OK
This is a great book for teaching about early American history on an elementary level. The book is written in an interesting question and answer format. I frequently read it to my students out of order, asking them to pick a question and then I read them the answer. I teach fifth grade (10-11 year-olds) and the age range is listed as 4-8.



If You Lived in Williamsburg in Colonial Days - MomMom Andie - PA
I bought this for my 5 year old granddaughter before our trip to Williamsburg. The content is a bit too advanced for a 5 year old. I had to edit much of it. At this age, she hasn't yet learned about many of the details included in the book. She didn't grasp the concept that this took place over 200 years ago & it was frightening to her.



Williamsburg - Judith C. Meaney - long island
I bought this book for my 7 year old granddaughter who is interested in history, but I enjoyed reading it myself!



Very well done! - J. Arena - Williamsburg, VA
Presented in a lively question and answer fashion, this volume satisfies curiosities that both children and adults frequently have about life in the colonial capital of Virginia.

Family, work, food, government, fashion, and more are all presented in an easily understandable and fascinating manner. Well done!
