Middle Colonies Unit

The Middle Colonies, or Breadbasket Colonies, were a place of religious freedom and toleration. Use this unit to teach your students all about William Penn, Quakers, apprenticeship, Benjamin Franklin, regional geography, and more!

This unit was recently updated and I added 65 Google Slides to help you introduce each lesson in an engaging way.
