Debriefing Questions for Map Assignment

Here are the debriefing questions for your map assignment, if you didn't have time to complete them in class today (assignment is due tomorrow).

1.Looking at your map, what do you notice about the location of the settlements? Why did settlers chose to live in these areas? Why not in other areas? Explain.

2.Create a list of site and situation factors that would have influenced settlement patterns on the Island. Which factor would have been the most prominent or influential? Why?

3.Compare your two maps. What are the differences/similarities? Were you surprised by the actual settlement locations? Why or why not?
