Pilgrims Landing onto the New World
|

| |
| Finally the long voyage was over and in December 1621 a good place to build a new town was found. |
| The Pilgrims looked around to find a place with calm water for fishing and a source of fresh water for drinking. |
| |
| The Pilgrims' first winter was very difficult. |
| There were not enough houses built when the snow begins to fall. |
| Many Pilgrims stayed aboard the Mayflower through the winter. |
| The Pilgrims were not used to the very cold winter. |
| At least 40 Pilgrims died because they didn't have enough food or medicine. |
| |
| A group of people called the Wampanoag were already living in the area of Plimoth. |
| How do you think they felt watching these new strangers build a settlement? |
