Colonial Stock Pamphlet Purpose: Students will work individually to create a “stock pamphlet” that presents information about the founding, development, and growth of the three colonial regions of the 17th and 18th century America. Topics: New England, Middle and Southern colonies Directions: Each student is responsible for selling a “colonial stock pamphlet” in which the colonial region is a stock. Your goal is to convince investors to support further colonization and investment in your region of the colonies. Your pamphlet should include some of the “downside” of your region, but should emphasize what is strong about your region. The pamphlet should be organized in a logical outline. Each pamphlet should have a mission statement on the front page emphasizing the main topics of the stock. To support your mission, you should formulate three major arguments that would encourage investors to send money to your region. Topics should come from the following list: 1. Founding, founders, and purpose for settlement 2. Geography and town development 3. Types of government with specific examples 4. Primary economic endeavors 5. Ethnic, religious, education issues 6. Social indicators (family, leisure, food) 7. Significant events, people 8. Cultural arts Though the arguments that you choose for your presentation will emphasize the strengths of you region, you are REQUIRED to produce a pamphlet that will cover significant information about all of the topics on the list above. The pamphlet is designed to educate prospective buyers about the region you are trying to sell. The livelier, organized, and creative pamphlet will earn high marks. However, be careful that you don’t style over substance (your goal is to educate and convince buyers). Any student who makes an entertaining pamphlet that does not fully address the issue will be penalized. Reminders: This pamphlet deals with the region as a whole. Do not limit yourself to going through the area colony to colony. You are asked here to do some analysis and draw some conclusions about each region, using each colony as support for your conclusions. Your pamphlet should be linked to your mission statement.
