John White returns to England for supplies, but war and delays prevent his immediate return. When he finally arrives near 1590, he finds no colonists, only the carved word “Croatoan.” The story explores unanswered questions about what happened and includes comprehension questions, map activities, and geography prompts related to North Carolina.","Virginia Dare and the Lost Colony  \nWhile the French and the Spanish were exploring North America and South America, the English also were coming over to this land. They had sent ships to the coast of Virginia, and had given it its name. At that time, Virginia included a lot of land that was later divided into separate states.  \nThey said, \"If this new country is so beautiful, let us make new homes for our people there.\"  \nSo one day in 1587, a ship with a number of English men, women, and children on board started out from England. It was bound for Virginia; and glad enough were the people when the ship drew near the shore and they could see the grass and the trees.  \n\"It is a beautiful shore,\" said John White, the leader of the band of colonists.  \nAs soon as they could, the colonists set to work to make homes for themselves in the new country.  \nThis was on Roanoke Island, off the coast of what is now the state of North Carolina. The climate was warm and there was plenty of lumber with which to build. The soil, too, was very rich, and they soon had fine fields of corn and potatoes.  \nRoanoke Island  \nOne day a little baby girl was born —the first English child born in America. This was on August 18, 1587 . How proud the father and mother were!  \n\"She is the baby of the colony,\"said her grandfather, John White. \"Let us name her Virginia.\"  \nThe little colonial baby was named Virginia Dare, and all the people in the colony loved her and  \nFree Worksheets and more for K-12 Education [www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com](www.STUDENTHANDOUTS.com)  \nVirginia Dare-2  \nhelped to take care of her in her rough forest home.  \nVirginia Dare  \n1.

So take good care of baby Virginia while I  \nam gone. Do not leave this place unless you find that you cannot hold it against the Indians. But if you have to go away, leave a sign for me. Cut the name of the place to which you go on one of the trees near the shore.\"  \nThen John White sailed away.\"Keep the colony together! Take care of the baby!\" he shouted as the ship sailed out of the harbor.  \n\"We will try!\" the brave men and women shouted back.  \n2. John White sailed away to  .  \na. England  \nb. France  \nc.

At last a ship was given to him, and he set sail for his colony.  \nAs he neared the Virginia coast, he often wondered if the people would be there to welcome him. \"The baby Virginia is now three years old,\" he said to himself. It would have been her third birthday—August 18, 1590 . He tried to think how she would look.  \ncolony  \nSometimes the thought came to him that she might not be alive; for a colony was a hard place for a little baby to live in. The houses were not  \nFree Printables for K-12 Education  \nalways warm, and there was not always food enough for the people. Then, too, the Indians and colonists sometimes did not get along.  \n\"I hope nothing has happened to the baby, or to the colony,\" White kept saying to himself.  \nBut now the vessel was coming into the harbor. The boats were lowered, and soon the sailors would be on land again.  \nvessel  \nBut why did no one come down to the shore to meet them? Were the colonists gone?
