Much of the structure and language come directly from the activities freely available on the company’s website. The content of this task is based on a visit to the Joshua Hempsted Houses and the corresponding program.  \nStudent Directions  \nTASK:  \nYou have discovered a secret doorway that will bring you to 18th century, the 1700s, (remember a century is 100 years long, and we are in the 21st century now, so you are living about 300 years ago!) New London, CT. Before you try the doorway, you have decided to learn more about this time and place to be sure you will like it there. You have visited a local museum and found a few sources (a source is something that provides information) about life in early New London.  \nAfter you have reviewed the sources, you will answer some questions about them. Briefly scan the sources and the two questions that follow. Then, go back and read the sources carefully so you will have the information you will need to answer the questions and complete your research. You may use scratch paper to take notes on the information you find in the sources as you read.  \nIn Part 2, you will write an informational paper using the information you have read. Before going through the doorway, you want to leave a note for your family so they know where you have gone and what you expect to find and do there.  \nDIRECTIONS FOR BEGINNING:  \nYou will now review several sources. You can review any of the sources as often as you like.  \nRESEARCH QUESTIONS:  \nAfter reviewing the research sources, use the rest ofthe time in Part 1 to answer two questions about them. Your answers to these questions will be scored. Also, your answers will help you think about the information you have read and viewed, which should help you write your informational paper.  \nYou may look at your notes when you think it would be helpful. Answer the questions in the spaces below the items.  \nYour written notes on scratch paper will be available to you in Part 1 and Part 2 of the performance task.  \nPart 1  \nQUESTION 1:  \nHow is your house like that of Joshua Hempsted’s? Give two similarities (things that are alike) and explain how they are similar in detail.  \nQUESTION 2:  \nWhich of the sources that you read makes Joshua’s time sound most like today? Use details from the source to explain how this is like life today. Be sure to include the title or date of the source that you are using in your example.  \nSOURCES FOR PERFORMANCE TASK: (ATTACHED)  \nSOURCE \\#1 You have found  \nJOSHUA HEMPSTED ESTATE INVENTORY  \nby Appraisers Sir Champman and Titus Hurlbut  \n(Part of) An Inventory of the Estate of Joshua Hempsted Esq.

Taken by us the Subscriber January 5th, 1759 being sown to that Service.  \nAppraisers Sir Champman Titus Hurlbut  \nSworn to by John Hempsted Feb 1759 (marked with an X)  \nTranscribed: (Today’s language)  \nThese are some of the many items left by Joshua Hempsted when he died in 1759, including lots of land. This list was made by Sir Champman and Titus Hurlbut whose job it was to list anything of value when someone died. Joshua Hempsted’s son, John, signed the list with an “X”.  \nThe value of the items is marked in £ (or pounds, shillings and pence) which was the money at the time. Today we use dollars. The value of a pound went up and down but in 1757 could have been about $1.48 in dollars today.  \nFor example: £9.1.6 = 9 pounds, 1 shilling, 6 pence could = about $20.00 today  \n12 pence (pennies) = 1 shilling  \n20 shillings = 1 £ (pound)  \n(Items)  \nSilver watch 2 Canes Silver mounted sword A Musket (gun) £45 Cutlas (Sword) £10 Small sword Iron pots and boxes & s.
