05:58 | , while the Susan Constant was the largest . These | |
06:04 | ships carried nearly 150 people on a voyage to North | |
06:08 | America . A voyage is a long trip taken by | |
06:12 | sea or air . The English settlers were in search | |
06:18 | of new land . First , they stopped at the | |
06:24 | Canary Islands for water and rest . Yeah , they | |

06:54 | They would soon begin to explore land in Virginia . | |
07:01 | Jamestown was the perfect location for a new settlement . | |
07:07 | It was surrounded by water , which made it easy | |
07:10 | to escape from attacks by boat . Mm . The | |
07:15 | area was also uninhabited . Which means that no one | |
07:18 | lived there While Native Americans lived in nearby areas . | |
07:24 | Jamestown was free to colonize . Yeah , the settlers | |
07:29 | long voyage had finally come to an end . Let's | |
07:34 | reveal Jamestown was the first English settlement . In North | |
07:39 | America , a settlement is a colony or a small | |
07:44 | community of people . English settlers went on a four | |
07:50 | month voyage from London to America . And 16 oh | |
07:53 | , six . A voyage is a long trip taken | |
07:57 | by sea or air . They selected Jamestown because it | |
08:04 | was uninhabited and surrounded by water . An area that | |
08:08 | no one lives in is uninhabited . Thanks for watching | |
08:15 | . Goodbye . Yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah | |
08:26 | . Mhm . Hello , boys and girls . Let's | |
08:30 | talk about Thanksgiving , which is a very important holiday | |
08:33 | in America . On this day , we watch parades | |
08:37 | , decorate our houses and have a big family dinner | |
08:44 | . Yeah , really ? But do you know where | |
08:55 | this holiday came from ? Let's learn more about the | |
08:59 | first Thanksgiving Day . Yeah . Yeah . Many years | |
09:13 | ago , in 16 . 20 a group of brave | |
09:17 | Englishman got off their ship in America . They were | |
09:21 | called pilgrims . Yeah , it was a tough cold | |
09:42 | winter , and they did not have enough food . | |
09:45 | Many people got very sick . When the spring came | |
10:00 | . The pilgrims had to learn how to feed themselves | |
10:07 | . Yeah , Native Americans showed them how to grow | |
10:13 | plants such as corn . Native Americans were the people | |
10:18 | who had long lived in America . They knew how | |
10:24 | to survive and grow food on this land . In | |
10:30 | the fall , the pilgrims gathered a big harvest . | |
10:34 | This means that they had plenty of food to eat | |
10:42 | . They decided to have a fancy dinner . Their | |
10:49 | native American neighbors were invited to the celebration . The | |
10:55 | Pilgrims were thankful that they had settled in a new | |
10:58 | place and started a new life . Mhm . Yeah | |
11:04 | . Since then , Americans come together on Thanksgiving to | |
11:08 | celebrate the things that they are thankful for . Family | |
11:14 | , food , shelter and good health are just a | |
11:17 | few things that many people give . Thanks for this | |
11:20 | day , right ? Yeah . Hello . Let's get | |
11:33 | started on the lesson . There are 50 states in | |
11:38 | the United States of America . If you look at | |
11:44 | the American flag , you will see 50 stars . | |
11:48 | One for each state . Mhm . Yeah , But | |
11:53 | many years ago , there were only 13 stars . | |
11:58 | Mm . These stars represented the original 13 American colonies | |
12:05 | New Hampshire , Massachusetts Bay , Rhode Island , Connecticut | |
12:13 | , New York , Pennsylvania , New Jersey , Delaware | |
12:21 | , Maryland , Virginia , Mhm , North Carolina , | |
12:29 | South Carolina . Yeah and Georgia . Mhm . Mhm | |
12:37 | . Back in the early 16 hundreds , English settlers | |
12:40 | came to America seeking independence from British rulers . They | |
12:45 | founded Virginia , the first American colony in 16 oh | |
12:52 | seven Settlers for many different nations , such as Sweden | |
12:59 | and France , continue to form colonies for many years | |
13:04 | . The 13th colony , Georgia , was founded in | |
13:07 | 17 32 . Yeah , American colonies were divided into | |
13:13 | three regions . The New England colonies , the middle | |
13:19 | colonies and the southern colonies . Each region had a | |
13:24 | different way of life . Um , mhm . The | |
13:33 | New England colonies were good for fishing and for trading | |
13:37 | , but there was very little farmland . Mhm . | |
13:47 | The middle colonies were better for growing crops and raising | |
13:51 | farm animals . Mhm , mhm . People in the | |
14:01 | southern colonies made money from cash crops such as rice | |
14:05 | and cotton . Cash crops were grown for the purpose | |
14:09 | of selling mhm . After the Revolutionary War colony started | |
14:15 | to become states . This would give them independence from | |
14:19 | Great Britain to start a new government . Mm . | |
14:24 | Let's review . Before there were 50 states , there | |
14:28 | were only 13 colonies in America . Yeah , colonies | |
14:36 | were founded by settlers in the 16 hundreds and 17 | |
14:40 | hundreds . American colonies were divided into three regions . | |
14:49 | New England , middle and Southern . Each region had | |
14:57 | a different way of life . Mhm Mm . The | |
15:04 | 13 colonies became states after the Revolutionary War gaining independence | |
15:09 | from Great Britain . Thank you for watching . Goodbye | |
15:20 | . Mhm . Mhm . Mhm , Grandpa . Why | |
15:37 | do we celebrate the Fourth of July ? Well , | |
15:41 | you see , July 4th 17 76 was a very | |
15:45 | special day in America . 17 . 76 . That | |
15:51 | sure was a long time ago . So what makes | |
15:55 | that day so special ? This was the first Independence | |
16:00 | Day in America . Independence . What does that mean | |
16:06 | ? Independence means freedom . For many years , American | |
16:12 | colonies were ruled by British leaders . They had to | |
16:15 | do what the British rulers told them to do . | |
16:19 | They could not make up their own laws . Congress | |
16:23 | leaders wanted to change this . They wrote the Declaration | |
16:28 | of Independence explaining why America should be free from Great | |
16:32 | Britain . On July 4 , 17 76 the Declaration | |
16:38 | of Independence was approved by Congress . America was finally | |
16:44 | free . Hooray ! Now Americans could do whatever they | |
16:50 | wanted . Oh , no , Dear America was free | |
16:55 | from British laws , but they had to make up | |
16:59 | new ones . Years later , in 17 87 the | |
17:04 | Constitution was written . The framers of the Constitution had | |
17:09 | a meeting at Independence Hall in Philadelphia . Some famous | |
17:14 | framers were Benjamin Franklin and George Washington . Together 39 | |
17:21 | framers signed and agreed on the rights that American citizens | |
17:25 | should have . Right ? What are right ? These | |
17:30 | are things that people have the freedom to do . | |
17:34 | You mean , like the Bill of Rights ? I | |
17:38 | remember we learned about that at school . Exactly . | |
17:42 | The Bill of Rights were amendments or small changes made | |
17:47 | to the Constitution in 17 91 . They were added | |
17:51 | to protect certain rights of American citizens , like freedom | |
17:56 | of speech and religion . Right , You've got it | |
18:01 | . And freedom of the press and many other rights | |
18:06 | . So Americans have all these rights because of what | |
18:10 | happened on July 4th , 17 , 76 . This | |
18:16 | was the beginning of it all . And we celebrate | |
18:20 | the Fourth of July to show how much we appreciate | |
18:23 | our freedom . Absolutely , Grandpa . I think Independence | |
18:30 | Day is my new favorite holiday . Me too , | |
18:35 | dear . Me too . Mhm . Mhm . Hello | |
18:55 | . Let's get started on the lesson . Um , | |
19:01 | an inventor is a person who creates something new . | |
19:05 | American inventors changed the way people live . Many years | |
19:11 | ago , in 18 38 Morris introduced an electric telegraph | |
19:21 | with a special code system to help people send messages | |
19:25 | . He invented morse code messages sent by Morse code | |
19:42 | contained dots and dashes to show the alphabet letters , | |
19:46 | numbers , punctuation marks and other special characters . Yeah | |
19:54 | , for example , this is how you would say | |
19:59 | hello in Morse code . Mm . Years later , | |
20:17 | in 18 76 Alexander Graham Bell invented the first telephone | |
20:23 | . He discovered a way to transmit or send sound | |
20:27 | across electrical lines . People could now use the telephone | |
20:43 | to talk to each other from long distances . Yeah | |
20:52 | , yeah . Thomas Edison invented the light bulb in | |
21:02 | 18 79 . Until then , people used fire as | |
21:09 | a main light source . Edison's bulb used electricity to | |
21:14 | create light . It was more powerful and less expensive | |
21:18 | than candles . This is because one light bulb could | |
21:24 | illuminate or light up an entire room . Centuries later | |
21:32 | , the light bulb is still a common household item | |
21:34 | all over the world . Yeah , Orville and Wilbur | |
21:56 | Wright invented the first successful airplane in 19 oh three | |
22:02 | . Yeah , Early inventions such as gliders and aerial | |
22:07 | steam engines failed . Thanks to the Wright brothers and | |
22:13 | their clever design , people can travel the world by | |
22:16 | air . Mm . Let's review . An inventor is | |
22:26 | a person who creates something new . Samuel Morris was | |
22:32 | the inventor of the telegraph system , called Morse Code | |
22:35 | . People could use these codes to send messages to | |
22:38 | one another . Alexander Graham Bell discovered a way to | |
22:43 | transmit or send sound across electrical lines . This led | |
22:48 | to his invention of the telephone . In 18 76 | |
22:53 | . Thomas Edison invented the light bulb in 18 79 | |
22:59 | . It was powerful enough to illuminate or light up | |
23:02 | an entire room . Mm . After many failed attempts | |
23:08 | , the Wright brothers invented the first successful airplane in | |
23:11 | 19 . Oh , three . Mhm . Thanks for | |
