John Smith Meets 21st Century Symbols and Lingo

This fun writing activity requires students to role play as John Smith, writing a summary of his experiences in Jamestown to an editor writing a book. The fun part for students, is that they are encouraged to use 21st century lingo such as "sus," "bro" and symbols and abbreviations such as LOL, SMH, and #.
