Looking Back:
- The compass rose with the 4 cardinal directions has been drawn.
- Tomochichi, Mary Musgrove, and James Oglethorpe were all key figures in the establishment of the Georgia colony. Tomochichi was a Native American chief who formed a close alliance with James Oglethorpe, the founder of Georgia, and helped negotiate peaceful relations between the Native Americans and the colonists. Mary Musgrove, a Native American interpreter and businesswoman, played a crucial role as a cultural mediator between the Native Americans and the colonists, helping to establish trade and maintain peace in the region.
- When a country exports more than it imports, it is called a trade surplus.
- Water provided a source of drinking water for early colonists and Native Americans. It is also used for recreational purposes (fun), such as swimming, boating, and fishing. Additionally, waterways and ports are crucial for transportation and commerce (think about who runs the ports), supporting trade and boosting the economy.
- The river that flows along the eastern border of the state and flows into the Atlantic Ocean is the Savannah River.
Looking Around:
- The French and Indian War was fought between the British and their American Indian allies against the French and their American Indian allies.
- Georgia was impacted by the French and Indian War as it brought conflict and disruption to the region. The war led to the establishment of British forts in Georgia to provide protection against the French and their American Indian allies. It also resulted in increased British control over Native American lands and territories, causing tensions and conflicts with the Native American tribes in Georgia.
- Georgia was largely impacted by the Proclamation of 1763. The proclamation banned colonial settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains, including parts of Georgia. This restricted the expansion of Georgia into Native American territories.
- FALSE. Georgia was impacted by the Stamp Act, but not to a significant extent as it was still a small colony with a relatively low population. However, there were still people in Georgia who were affected by the tax on stamped paper and documents required by the act.
- King George III was the king of Great Britain at this time.
- The colonies banded together and formed the Stamp Act Congress to protest the Stamp Act.
- The group specifically formed in Georgia to protest the Stamp Act was called the Liberty Boys.
Looking Forward:
- The part of the Declaration of Independence that stated that the colonists were leaving the rule of the king is known as the Declaration of Independence itself.
- One of the signers of the Declaration of Independence from Georgia was Button Gwinnett.
Looking Back:
1. To draw a compass rose with the 4 cardinal directions, follow these steps:
- Start by drawing a circle on a piece of paper, ensuring it is centered.
- Inside the circle, draw a vertical line from the top to the bottom, and a horizontal line from the left to the right.
- Mark the top point of the circle as "North," the bottom point as "South," the left point as "West," and the right point as "East."
- To add more detail, you can label the four primary intercardinal directions: Northeast, Southeast, Southwest, and Northwest.
2. Tomochichi, Mary Musgrove, and James Oglethorpe were all significant figures in Georgia's colonial history:
- Tomochichi was a Creek Indian Chief who helped establish peaceful relations between the British colonists and the Creek tribe.
- Mary Musgrove was a Creek Indian interpreter and trader who played a crucial role in mediating between the British and Native Americans.
- James Oglethorpe was the founder of the Georgia colony and worked closely with Tomochichi and Mary Musgrove to establish the colony and maintain positive relations with the Native Americans.
3. When a country exports more than it imports, it is called a trade surplus.
4. Water provided a source of drinking water for the early colonists and Native Americans. It is also used for recreation (fun) and provides transportation (think about who runs the ports) and boosts the economy.
5. The river that flows along the eastern border of Georgia and into the Atlantic Ocean is the Savannah River.
Looking Around:
1. The French and Indian War was fought between Great Britain and France.
2. Georgia was impacted by the French and Indian War in several ways:
- The war disrupted the fur trade in Georgia, which negatively affected the economy.
- Georgia was vulnerable to Native American attacks during the war, leading to increased tensions and conflicts with indigenous tribes.
- British soldiers were stationed in Georgia to protect the colony from potential French and Spanish invasions.
3. Yes, Georgia was impacted by the Proclamation of 1763. The proclamation prohibited colonists from settling west of the Appalachian Mountains, including lands ceded to Georgia by Native American tribes. This caused frustration and conflict as colonists desired to expand into these territories.
4. FALSE. Georgia, like other British colonies, was impacted by the Stamp Act. The act imposed direct taxes on various printed materials, affecting everyone, regardless of the colony's size or population.
5. King George III was the king of Great Britain during this time.
6. The colonies banded together and formed the Stamp Act Congress to protest the Stamp Act.

Looking Forward:
1. The part of the Declaration of Independence that stated the colonists were leaving the rule of the king is the section known as the "Declaration of Independence."
2. One of the signers of the Declaration of Independence from Georgia was Button Gwinnett.
Looking Back:
To draw a compass rose with the four cardinal directions, start by drawing a simple circle on a piece of paper or a computer program. Then, at the top of the circle, draw an upward-facing arrow to represent north. Next, draw a downward-facing arrow at the bottom of the circle to represent south. Finally, draw left-facing and right-facing arrows on the left and right sides of the circle to represent west and east, respectively. Make sure the arrows are evenly spaced and proportional to each other.
Tomochichi, Mary Musgrove, and James Oglethorpe were all important figures in the founding and development of the Georgia colony. Tomochichi was a Native American chief of the Yamacraw tribe, who befriended and helped Oglethorpe and the English colonists establish the settlement of Savannah. Mary Musgrove, an interpreter and diplomat, was the daughter of a Creek Indian mother and an English father. She played a key role in facilitating communication and trade between the colonists and the Creek Indians. James Oglethorpe, the founder of the Georgia colony, worked closely with Tomochichi and Mary Musgrove to establish peaceful relations and trade agreements with the Native American tribes in the region.
When a country exports more than it imports, it is called a trade surplus or a positive balance of trade.
Water provided a source of drinking water for the early colonists and Native Americans. It was also used for recreational purposes, such as swimming and fishing. In addition, waterways served as transportation routes, allowing goods to be transported to and from ports. This boosted the economy by facilitating trade and commerce.
The river that flows along the eastern border of the state of Georgia and into the Atlantic Ocean is the Savannah River.
Looking Around:
The French and Indian War was fought between the British, supported by their Native American allies, and the French, supported by their Native American allies. It took place from 1754 to 1763.
The French and Indian War had a significant impact on Georgia. British forces, including Georgia troops, were involved in several major battles, such as the Battle of Fort Duquesne and the Battle of Quebec. Georgia's participation in the war helped solidify its loyalty to the British crown and strengthen its ties to the British Empire.
Yes, Georgia was impacted by the Proclamation of 1763. The proclamation, issued by King George III, prohibited colonial settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains in an attempt to avoid conflicts with Native American tribes and to control westward expansion. This affected Georgia, as it restricted the colony's ability to expand and settle further west.
FALSE. Georgia, like other colonies, was impacted by the Stamp Act. The Stamp Act imposed a tax on various printed materials, such as legal documents, newspapers, and playing cards. While Georgia was a smaller colony with a smaller population compared to others, it still had people who needed these materials and were affected by the tax.
King George III was the king of Great Britain at this time.
The colonies came together and formed the Stamp Act Congress to protest the Stamp Act. It was held in New York City from October 7 to 25, 1765.
