By Mrs. White's Class
The thirteen colonies are Virginia, New York, New Jersey, Maine, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Delaware, North Carolina, South Carolina, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.
They had to obey the king of Great Britain. George Washington became the first president because he won the war. The colonists signed the Declaration of Independence so they could be free from the king of Great Britain. They didn't want to give him any more money because they thought it wasn't fair.
Colonists are people who live in a colony. A colony is a place that is ruled by another country.
