In September 1620, some English people went to America in a boat.
One of those ships was called the Mayflower.
They settled down in the new continent. They cut down trees to build houses and churches. Soon the winter came. They had a hard time during the first winter. They did not have enough food and clothes. Many of them got sick and died.
In spring, Indians visited the them. They taught the Americans how to plant corn.
In fall, they had a very good harvest.
