Understanding the wider context

The arrival of the Mayflower had a lasting impact on the development of the United States. Key themes of migration, contact, belonging, family, and environment,  provide the contexts through which the motivations and implications of colonial settlement can be addressed and analysed.

Links have been provided to academic overviews, an academic interpretation, of each theme.

Coming soon will be a range of supporting curriculum resources and extra curricular opportunities.
