Emma:
The Mayflower was not a comfortable place. They had straw mattresses to sleep on, they had Bible's, they had some books, they didn't have toilets. They had a top floor and a bottom floor and a middle floor. Some people had hammocks. There were woman and children on the ship. One of the captins was called Captin Jones. William Bradford was on the ship. He kept a journal about what happened on the Mayflower.
Our Mosaic of William Bradford
Robyn:
The Mayflower was a boat that sailed from England in 1620. It stopped in Cape Cod Bay in Massachusetts. William Bradford was on the boat with 102 people. Some of those people were called Separatist. They called themselves Separatist because they wanted to be separate from the Church of England and find a new place. Pilgrim means a person who is looking for a holy place. There were children on the boat they might have had things like a rag doll, marbles, puppets, but not very many toys. William Bradford kept a journal. If he hadn't kept a journal we wouldn't know much about the Mayflower. He also wrote the Mayflower Compact which was an agreement to keep peace among the pilgrims.
