Sailing+reflection

Your colony prepared to sail by spending wealth units to purchase all needed supplies for not only the journey across the Atlantic Ocean, but also for when you arrived in the New World. After experiencing the sailing portion of this activity, you should understand how well your colony prepared for the voyage. You also learned some things about what could have affected your journey sailing. This is your assignment:

Write a 1-2 paragraph reflection on how well you think your colony prepared your ships cargo. Be sure to include what you selected well, not well, and if you could do it again, what would you change. Additionally, reflect on the conditions or circumstances that helped or hurt your ships as they sailed across the Atlantic Ocean. Even if you arrived with food units to spare, this may be something you should have prepared more of simply because of the conditions that could have affected your journey. Lastly, now that your ships have reached the New World, in what condition did your ships, crew, cargo, and enthusiasm arrive to begin your new life? This should reflect how well you think your colony will do with what they have.

This assignment is due next class. Be prepared to submit this reflection.
