It is intended to be used in conjunction with John Winthrop, Oliver Cromwell, and the Land of Promise by Sibert Award-winning author Marc Aronson, along with other materials. The lessons will compliment curriculum in the social studies, particularly early colonial Anglo-American history (including key figures in the history of religious toleration, Anne Hutchinson and Roger Williams) and the rise of representative institutions. Each lesson is designed with multiple objectives in mind, to make the most efficient use of teachers’ time. The guide consists of four lesson plans drawn from topics investigated in John Winthrop, Oliver Cromwell, and the Land of Promise: • America, Land of Promise • Anne Hutchinson’s Trial: Conscience in Conflict • Roger Williams and John Winthrop • Democracy’s Debate: From Rex is Lex to the Levellers Within each lesson plan you will find all or most of the following information: • Synopsis of lesson • National curriculum standards met by this lesson (based on Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning standards and benchmarks, www.mcrel.org) • Time required • Materials needed • The lesson (with lesson-starter and lesson procedures) • Additional resources • Interdisciplinary activities Although the study guide is designed so that the four lesson plans provide an integrated course of studies, it is not expected that students will complete all the listed activities. Teachers may assign selected activities to their classes, allow students to choose an activity for themselves, or set up independent learning centers with the material needed for suggested activities. Also, teachers may wish to give students the opportunity to earn extra credit by completing some activities as independent work. Recognizing the time John Winthrop Study Guide www.MarcAronson.com Page 2 and accountability constraints facing classroom teachers, we encourage you to select and adapt the John Winthrop, Oliver Cromwell, and the Land of Promise activities that best meet your students’ needs and abilities, curriculum requirements, and your teaching style. This study guide was written by Jean M. West, an education consultant in Port Orange, Florida. John Winthrop Study Guide www.MarcAronson.com Page 3 I. Land of Promise Synopsis This lesson examines the origins, elements, and evolution of the theme “America, the Land of Promise.” One of the central questions which link the Puritan experience on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean is “Where could a searching soul find true Heaven on earth?” Students will investigate how the Puritan’s view that they were the chosen people, on a mission of destiny, striving for perfection in the Promised Land, judged by man and God has evolved over time. They will also consider the legacy of “America, the Land of Promise,” in the contemporary view Americans have of themselves and the United States. Teachers may choose to use this lesson as a thematic framework for a survey course of American history, either completing all the activities as the initial unit of the school year, or introducing the theme and then returning to it as a touchstone throughout the academic year. This lesson is designed to be used in conjunction with John Winthrop, Oliver Cromwell, and the Land of Promise. The lesson is most appropriate for high school students, grades 9-12. National Curriculum Standards Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning has created standards and benchmarks for language arts, math, science, geography, economics, and history. This lesson meets Level IV (Grades 9-12) standards and benchmarks for: United States History Standard (3rd Ed.) for Era 2 – Colonization and Settlement (1585- 1763) including benchmarks: 3.

Understands the characteristics of the social structure of colonial America (e.g., the property rights of single, married, and widowed women; public education in the New England colonies and how it differed from the southern colonies, different patterns of family life; different ideas among diverse religious groups, social classes, and cultures; different roles and status of men and women) 5. Understands the similarities and differences in colonial concepts of community (e.g., Puritan’s covenant community, Chesapeake colonial emphasis on individualism) Historical Understanding (3rd Ed.) Standard 2: Understands the historical perspective including benchmarks: 1. Analyzes the values held by specific people who influenced history and the role their values played in influencing history 2.

Standard 4: Gathers and uses information for research purposes including benchmarks: 3. Uses a variety of primary sources to gather information for research topics 4. Uses a variety of criteria to evaluate the validity and reliability of primary and secondary source information (e.g., the motives, credibility, and perspectives of the author; date of publication; use of logic, propaganda, bias, and language; comprehensiveness of evidence) Time Required This lesson will probably take three to five class periods if taught as a complete unit, depending on the amount of reading and written work assigned outside of class. Materials Needed John Winthrop, Oliver Cromwell, and the Land of Promise Land of Promise Worksheet The Lesson Lesson-Starter 1. Ask students to examine the photographs and captions for John Winthrop’s home at Groton Manor, Suffolk, England on p. 25 and a reproduction of John Endicott’s Puritan-era home in Salem on p. 44. 2. Invite them to make comparisons between the two structures and to hypothesize why John Winthrop would have left his English manor to pioneer a new life in the wilderness of the New World. Procedures 1. Direct the class to read “Why This Book,” pp. XIII-XIV; “Chapter Two—John Winthrop,” pp. 23-34; “Chapter Three—Land of Promise,” pp. 35-49; and “Epilogue,” pp. 167-172. Ask students to take notes of examples of Puritan beliefs in the left column of the Land of Promise Worksheet at the end of this lesson. 2. Explain to students that they will be tracing the Puritan belief in America as a Land of Promise by selecting and investigating one later document in U.S. history or literature which touches on the theme. Students may work as individuals or in teams of two to trace how the theme has evolved or transformed in these writings. They will take notes in the right hand column of the worksheet and answer the questions at the end.

    104 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Winter 2013 The Trial of Anne Hutchinson, 1637 105 Sex and Sin: The Historiography of Women, Gender, and Sexuality in Colonial Massachusetts SANDRA SLATER Abstract: Historians have long examined the powerful events that shaped the Massachusetts Bay in the colonial period, in part because the vast array of source material available for study, but more importantly, due to the enigmatic personalities who wrote those materials. Scholars of economics, politics, and theology all present differing explanations and descriptions of colonial Massachusetts, but it has only been in the last forty years that scholars have begun to think of the colonists as individuals. The advent of various civil rights movements of the 1960s and 1970s as well as the social turn in history, an increased focus on the histories of ordinary people and their experiences, questioned traditionally masculine and white-privileged histories by asking about everyone else. Women’s and gender studies and the even more recent studies of sexualities and queer history offer a valuable window through which to view and understand daily life. This article surveys gender histories of colonial Massachusetts, revolutionary works that uncover and discuss the lives of colonial people as gendered beings.

    Issue 41: The American Puritans The American Puritans: Did You Know? Little-known or remarkable facts about the American Puritans Cassandra Niemczyk is an independent scholar who contributed to The Variety of American Evangelicalism (Tennessee, 1991). Critic H. L. Mencken once said, wrongly, “Puritanism is the haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.” On the contrary, Puritans read good books and enjoyed music. They drank beer with meals and rum at weddings. Puritans swam and skated, hunted and fished, and played at archery and bowling (as long as the games were not in a public tavern or on Sunday). The famous “Pilgrims,” who landed at Plymouth Rock in 1620, were so radical they were usually disliked and sometimes hated. Unlike most Puritans, they did not seek to reform the Church of England; they thought the church was beyond help. Most weddings in New England were performed not by ministers but by magistrates. Wedding rings, seen as “popish,” were not used. The early settlers of Massachusetts included more than 100 graduates of Oxford and Cambridge. One historian termed Massachusetts “the best-educated community the world has ever known.” In Puritan worship, a prayer could last an hour or more; a sermon, two hours. In a lifetime, a Puritan might hear 15,000 hours of preaching. Within only six years of their arrival, while still trying to hew out an existence, the Puritans founded a religious college named Harvard. Puritans wanted highly educated ministers, not “Dumme Doggs,” as they called less-trained examples. New England residents who failed to attend worship services on Sunday morning and afternoon were fined or put into stocks.

  • Transcript of the Trial of Anne Hutchinson (1637)
    Transcript of the Trial of Anne Hutchinson (1637) Puritans founded the Massachusetts Bay Colony in hopes of creating a model of Christian unity and order. However, in the 1630s, the Puritans confronted fundamental disagreements over theology. Anne Hutchinson arrived in Boston in 1634 and was a follower of John Cotton, who preached that salvation was achieved by faith alone, not by good works. Such ideas threatened the authority of Massachusetts’ ministers and magistrates. When Hutchinson began to hold meetings to discuss her theological views with other women and with men, Puritan magistrates charged her with heresy. This document is the transcript of her 1637 trial. Gov. John Winthrop: Mrs. Hutchinson, you are called here as one of those that have troubled the peace of the commonwealth and the churches here; you are known to be a woman that hath had a great share in the promoting and divulging of those opinions that are the cause of this trouble, and to be nearly joined not only in affinity and affection with some of those the court had taken notice of and passed censure upon, but you have spoken divers things, as we have been informed, very prejudicial to the honour of the churches and ministers thereof, and you have maintained a meeting and an assembly in your house that hath been condemned by the general assembly as a thing not tolerable nor comely in the sight of God nor fitting for your sex, and notwithstanding that was cried down you have continued the same. Therefore we have thought good to send for you to understand how things are, that if you be in an erroneous way we may reduce you that so you may become a profitable member here among us.

Wesley’s own writings and pertinent secondary sources provide the resources for investigating and understanding Wesley’s missional interpretation of God’s interaction with the world. A re-examination of Wesley’s theological method, highlighting his awareness of the created order and of culture, further illuminates Wesley’s comprehensive approach to mission. To assess Wesley’s contemporary relevance, the holistic ministry of World Vision International is examined and compared with Wesley’s approach.
