John Smith probably misread the actions of the Native Americans in several situations. One was during the the first part of his capture, when he was toured
around various tribal groups. Another was during the dinner, when Powhaten
pretended to attack him. The third was when Pocahontas "saved" his life. Take one
(1) of these and
1) List the specific instance (so I know which one you will discuss)
2) What John Smith thought and expected.
3) What the natives probably thought (hint, matriarchal society and playing tricks)
Your response will probably take 3 to 5 sentences. Each correct response for the 3 is
worth 5 points, and grammar counts for the other 5. Partial points are available.
