History of Needham

Third grade historians are having a blast studying the history of our great town! So far we have learned about the Puritans arriving in the New World and their settlement in Dedham and eventually Needham. Today, I asked the children to respond to the following prompt:

Tell me 3 things that are wrong with this statement.

Puritans came to Needham directly from England because there was not enough food in England. There was plenty of food in Needham because nobody had lived there before.


Ask your child to tell you how they responded. You will be impressed by how much they already know!
