"Anne Marbury Hutchinson." The Library of Congress: American Memory. 16 July 2007. The Library of Congress. 21 Oct 2008 http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/today/jul20.html#page_content.
I found this site and it gave me really great details about her in historical context, allowingme to understand her impact better. I learned that she was a midwife and a skilled, reveared herbalist in the ealry colonies. She was called the Jezebel of colonial America for her efforts to 'thwart the traditional way of life'.
I have not been able to find many sources like this to help with my research, so I plan to use this as a base of my paper. I can use it to experess my main piont in my paper. She was a woman who defied almost everything that was normal and accepted in her world and, instead, created her own way and decided her own future as well as inspiring many other to follow in her example.
*though I love the idea of this topic, I can't find many sources at all. I am considering switching to Mary Edwards Walker. What do you think?

First Annotation of NHD 2009
1) Choice One Communications. "Women of the Hall: Anne Hutchinson." National women' Hall of Fame. Choice One Communications. 16 Oct 2008 .
This article gave me a brief over view of the Anne's early days in the colonies and of her banishment. It told me of her legacy, travel, family, and of her untimely and tragic death.
I plan to use this article as the basis of my research. I will use each of the topics listed above and do deeper research into them. I will find out where exactly she went after she was banished and what she did. I will discover what she did during her travels and the people she helped. The first feminist, female minister, and martyr in American, she is a prominent figure who is all too often forgotten.
2) "Anne Hutchinson Creed." Anne Hutchinson. 05 Dec 2002. annehutchinson.com. 18 Oct 2008 http://www.annehutchinson.com/creed.htm.
This site gave me a look at Mrs. Hutchinson's creed. It also gave me a look at her trial and helpful sources to look onto.
I will use this to get a better understanding of Mrs. Hutchinson. I can use parts of it to show why she was banished from Salem. Also, I can get a look at her actual trial.
3)Cline, Austin. "Agnosticism / Atheism: Anne Hutchinson." About.com. 2008. The New York Times Company. 18 Oct 2008 http://atheism.about.com/library/glossary/western/bldef_hutchinsonanne.htm.
This site a look at how Mrs. Hutchinson's belief would be defined now. It gave great comparisons between her belief system and those of other religions.
I can use this in order to connect her system of belief to our present day lives. This can give us an idea as to why she was thought a witch and, compared to today, why she wasn't welcome in Salem.
4) Rogers , Jay. "America's Christian Leaders: Anne Hutchinson." The Forerunner. Apr 2008. Commonwealth of Massachusetts. 18 Oct 2008 http://wwhttp//www.forerunner.com/forerunner/X0193_Anne_Hutchinson.htmlw.pearsoncustom.com/link/socialscience/history/ushistory/annehutchinson.html.
This site gave me a deeper look at Mrs. Hutchinson's teaching style. How it influenced the way people thought and practiced their beliefs.
I can use this to further understand her beliefs and how she changed the practicing of religion. It also helped me to realize that she was a well educated woman who was only persecuted for hewr wya of thinking. It shows that she was a pioneer of her time and gender.
5) Marshall, H.E.. "Chapter 25: Anne Hutchinson and the Founding of Rhode Island."This Country of Ours: The Story of the United States. 1917.
This chapter gave me a look at Mrs. Hutchinson's part in the founding of modern-day Rhode Island. It detailed her arrival and her part as the minister in the town.
I can use this to clariy how her efforts shaped our country today. How she helped to clear the way for other educated women to make a diference in their own lives.

This site gave me a look at the actual case of Anne Hutchinson. I could read about the actual opinions and ideas of the judges. I could also learn about the evidence they brought against her.
I can use this as a way to explain how she practiced her religion and how she stood firm in her ways, even in the face of such opposition. It can be seen as an example of why she was known as America's first revolutionary.
7) Morris, Charles. "Massachusetts Colony." Colonialancestors.com. 2007. 18 Oct 2008 http://colonialancestors.com/ma/colony.htm.
This site provided information on the Massachusetts colony in the 17th century. It gave examples of the colony's life style, the pilgrims' founding, and the religious persecution in the colony through the years.
I can use this to better understand lie in the colony. By knowing the way of life at the time, we can see how Mrs. Hutchinson made a change and why she and others like her were rejected.

This site provided information as to Mrs. Hutchinson's belief's. The view of those in the colony then and how her belief was actually quite ordinary despite being thought of as unorthodox.
I can use this to explain how her views were thought of by fellow pilgrims. These can show how she came to have such 'radical' ideas on faith and the human fate.

This site gave me an indepth view and understanding of the lives of early settlers. It showed the hardships faced by them in their natives lands and the problems in the new colonies.
I will use this to better understand the thoughts of those who persecuted Mrs. Hutchinson. With the tragedies surrounding them, they were forced to the conclusions they reached. It explains the constant fear they lived in every day.

2009 NHD Topic Selection paragraph
I choose Anne Hutchinson for my NHD project because I am interested in the the role women played in the 17th Century in the colonies. Especially, during the time of the Salem With Trials.
This person is important to history because without their efforts, we may not have broken away from the strict, overwhelming control of the Puritan way of life. She was banished from Salem for fighting against their rule and left to start her own colony in what is now Rhode Island, where she became he leader of her new religious community.
For this weeks research, I found an article at http://www.gratwomen.org/women.php?acion=viewone&id=84. I will read and summarize it for next week.

Service Learning Reflection 5/28
• What have I learned about myself through this experience?
I have learned that I am not an affective leader. I have tried week after week to keep these kids focused and do what needs to be done. They just do whatever they want. Also, I have no idea how to create a program like this. It's only been by the help of Mrs. McMillan that we have gotten this far and did as much as we have.
• What more needs to be done?
We still need to find tutors for next year. we have to find a place to hold these sessions and create a schedule for them. we have to get the tutors to agree and find ways of keeping tabs on the teachers' lesson plans next year, so we know what to focus on.
• How is the issue/agency you're serving impacted by what is going on in the larger political/social sphere?
Our tutoring may not get off the ground if we can not find tuors or tutees. No ne will want to be a tutor because they will be labeled a nerd or something and no one wants tutoring beceause "people who need tuoring ust be really dumb." If these ideas still hold true, our system is going to crash and burn before we ever had the chance to make it work.

We had quite a few problems this week.
1) The group wanted to have a fundraiser for supplies and we had to come up with something to sell and a slogan. We picked the top three and instead of choosing one, they chose three. We are going to sell something new each week for the next three weeks.
2) When creating names, almost half of or group was missing because or the dance and we had a lot of people we had to bring up to speed.
3) During all this, as the leader, I tried to take control of the group an keep us focused. However, all they wanted to do was clown around and Kaliah decided she was the boss, shoting down all my ideas, telling me what to do, and making decissions without the consent of the group.
4) We came up with the schedule for sellers and what they would be selling. We also decided who would be bringing in what.
5) A list was made of the supplies we will need. Though we don't really need the supplies, the students should provide them, they insited on buying a bulk set of pencils, erasers, and other little things.
6) We may have gotten some work done, but it was not done the way it should have been and I am begining to feel as though this system is never going to come to be. All we do is handle insignificant details or don't do any work or do it incorrectly. We need someone to give us a hand.
7) For next week, we need to work on finding possible tutors, coming up with a tutoring schedule, and finding a place to hold these sessions. We also need to create a plan for keeping tabs on the teachers' school schedules so we know what to tutor them in.

We got some work done! We recieved our surveys and talied the results. The ninth grade is done and we are finishing the tenth grade today. We are going to see which subjects need the most help and how many tutors we may need. we are then going to see who we can get to be a tutor and possibly assign a tutoring schedule/list.
As the leader of this group, I think we could have done better than this, but we're not doing too bad. I'm not sure how much hope we have for this project, though. Whenever wee have to come up with an idea or make a decision, it seems like we're always butting heads. When the majority agree, Kalima is always saying that she doesn't agree and it won't work and we spend the entire period arguing. Dom, Brandon, and Malik never do any work and only cause a distraction.
I would love to see this come into play, but I don't know if it can if our group doesn't come together and do something.
I heard that Bridgett's group had a little trouble with their raffle, but otherwise, the fair went fine. They raise some money and are now in the process of coming up with a new idea. They are searching for a nurse or other healthcare professional to come in and speak to them. I volunteered to talk t my aunt and see if she knows anyone who would be willing. Also, Mr. Romero's group is going well. He said they were making a to of progress, though I can't remember what they were doing.

We had a small/major disaster. The results to our survey, which we had passed out to the whole school,hadn't been properly filled out. We decided to just take what we could get and tally those votes. However, the result from the tenth grade and ninth grade had gotten mixed together and we ended up creating a new, improved survey and made everyone take it again.
Our last meeting was not very successful and turned into a poetry reading. This week, we are going to tally the votes and make arrangements to contact those who we believe would make suitable tutors for our program. After seeing which subjects need the most attention, I think we will start working on creating a tutor schedule and finding a place to hold these tutoring sessions.
We still have a lot of work ahead of us, but I think we're off to a good start. As long as we stay focused, we'll do just fine and have this thing in place for next year, no problem.
