By Emerson "Tad" Baker was first contacted about consulting for COLONIAL HOUSE in the fall of 2002. By that time the production team had decided upon filming in Maine, and they were very interested in having a consultant who specialized in the early history of that region. Maine has a rich and varied early history that often gets overlooked, so I was eager to join the effort. Also, I was excited to see PBS tackle 17th-century history. The era of the first European settlement of America is a compelling and relevant topic, but difficult to do in a traditional documentary without the vintage photographs and archival film footage of more recent eras. In January 2003, we had a meeting, at Thirteen/WNET New York, of the production team and a group of historical advisors experts in all aspects of early European settlement of America. In the meeting we began to narrow down the specifics of our plantation. Although the colony was physically set in Maine, we wanted to create a broader based experience, one that drew its inspiration from the many initial efforts at settlement in North America. Still, the Maine setting limited some of our options. Maine's geography and climate meant that our colony could not be a tobacco colony like Virginia or Maryland. Instead, its basis would have to be activities like fishing, lumbering, and fur trading. Fortunately, our colony could be more typical in its religious practices. Settlements in Maine began as Anglican colonies, rather than the Puritan colonies of southern New England. The devout Puritans of Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay are well known to all schoolchildren, however they were in the minority of English settlers who came to America in the 17th century. Most colonists were contented Anglicans (members of the Church of England).

42. A Geography Theme Using "Sarah, Plain And Tall" Procedures. Arrange the classroom with pictures of maine and Kansas. Set up centers for geography skills to be practiced. Show slides with an audio tape. http://fga.freac.fsu.edu/1994/theme.htm

Part of the Florida Geographic Alliance's collection of lesson plans A GEOGRAPHY THEME USING THE BOOK SARAH, PLAIN AND TALL LINDA BONTRAGER Grade Level: Time: The time for this lesson will depend upon the students. Some areas will take more time than others. This is a theme study and a certain amount of time must be set aside each day for each subject area to be covered. Geographic Theme Location, Place, Human Environment, Regions, Movement Purpose Geography can be taught using a variety of books. In first grade students love to be read aloud to. To use literature and add a geography lesson from that piece of literature is exciting and fun. A theme can move smoothly from one subject matter to the next by using children's literature. The classroom must reflect this by having centers/stations arranged for the children to have a hands-on experience. Art work and written work needs to show all subject areas are being covered. Objectives The student will: be attentive to the reading of Sarah Plain and Tall locate Maine and Kansas on the wall map and desk map and put a large round sticky dot on each state and stretch a piece of twine from Maine to Kansas.
