  1. I belive that the most interesting 3-dementional picture was the internal governer's house. It was really modern, just it could use some interior designing. The second most interesting photo was the secnary. It was very green and it was covered with flowers and grass. The only houses that were there were wooden. The story "And Then What Happened, Paul Revere?", it says, "He had already figured out a way to warn the people by using the Charelston River." See? People still use BOATS to travel!

  2. I think the 2 best rooms were the room withe the axes and the normal house. The first one was cool because it had axes. And the second one is cool because the bed look good." Paul kept puttin new chairs at the kitchen table."

  4. One of my favorite pictures is the village on the lake. I loved that because it really looked like it was there forever and it was carved into nature with that lake. My other favorite would be the bedroom. I liked that because at first it didn't look very clean, but then I thought that that is so cool how they could make that with a loft and a bed and everything! It was also interesting how Paul made so many things to. "He made beads, rings, lockets, bracelets, buttons, metals, pitchers, teapots, spoons, sugar baskets, cups, ewers, porringers, shoe buckles and candle sticks. Once he even made a silver collar for a man's pet squirrel.

  5. I think that my favorite part of the pictures was the lake because it looks like their are animals there. It relates to our story because there is a lake there and a whole bunch of animals"4I8 horses and half of the people had dogs."The second picture was the Mayors house because it looked like a real house and it had all the right things for a house."

  8. I think the most interesting image was the governor's house. It was interesting because I think it look of the little room looked so different from now. It was so small there were teapots on the ground. The second picture I liked was the Ovens and Colony picture because it was very old and is not seen anymore. Here is a quote from the story: "He made beads, rings, lockets, bracelets, buttons, medals, pitchers, teapots, spoons, sugar baskets, cups, ewers, porringers, shoe buckles, and candlesticks."

    The two things that were most interesting were the storehouse and the ovens. It would be hard to cook in the ovens.

    "Then he picked up his ax and joined the other Son of Liberty, all pretendind to be Indians, all carrying axes."

  10. One picture that really amazed me was the picture of an old house because everything was so ordinary, but at the same time, interesting. ex:The pile of pots and pans. Another image that I found interesting was the picture of the lake and vally because the water was glistening and the grass looked so perfect. Here is a connection from the story,"They were filling in ponds."

  15. The picture i chose was the storehouse.I think it was really cool because all that food they store in there. And something else i thought was cool was how they fit all of the food in there.There was like thousands of pounds of food in there and it wasn't even that big of a storehouse.There was like 1,741 pounds of one thing."

  19. The most intersting 2 thing I thought were the corn crib and the fence.The thing i thought was cool about the fence was that every house had a fence around it's house and garden.the thing i thought was cool about the corn crib is that you don't really put corn in it you could put anything in it. The things you could put in it are,"beads,rings,lockets,braclets,buttons."
