Crazy About Colonial Times
Students will choose a trade to which they would like to be apprenticed in the colonies, (from a list) and do a one page (type written) report describing this trade and why it was important to the colonies. Students will also write a dramatic monologue, (at least 2 paragraphs and separate from the report) telling their prospective employer why you've chosen this trade and why he should choose them as his apprentice.
