Underline the differences in each version of the Pocahontas story.
When Pocahontas was about 10 or 11 years
old, an English company called the
Virginia Company of London sailed to
North America, arriving in the Chesapeake
Bay area, close to where Pocahontas lived.
That’s your opinion!
The fact is, there
is one worm and

S
ome stories say that when the settlers
ran out of food, Pocahontas helped
them. The most well known story says that
when Captain John Smith, a leader of the
Jamestown settlement, visited with
Powhatan, he was asked to lay on two
rocks. Once he lay down, Powhatan’s men
raised clubs as if to kill him. Pocahontas,
the legend claims, saved his life by
covering him with her own body.

part of it is not,” says Chief
Roy Crazy Horse, leader of the
Powhatan people today.
“Pocahontas was the daughter
of a chief named Powhatan.
She was about 10 or 11 years of
age when the Virginia
Company of London started the
settlement of Jamestown.
“But,” he adds, “the story about
Pocahontas saving Captain
Smith from being clubbed by
Powhatan’s men is not true. In
fact, right after his visit with
Powhatan, Smith wrote that he
had been treated in a friendly
fashion as an honored guest.
N
The Englishmen built a fort there and
called it Jamestown, after the king of
England.

“Captain John Smith wrote the
story about Pocahontas saving
his life in a report he wrote
17 years after the event was
supposed to have happened,”
says the chief. “In fact, Smith
wrote this report seven years
after Pocahontas herself died.
So there was no way for her to
contradict the story.”

AN D TO W IN G
An opinion tells what someone
`
thinks or feels about something.
Different people can have different
opinions about the same thing.
For example, if two baseball teams
play each other, the score tells a fact about the game.
Let’s say one team gets 5 points and the other gets 3
points. One team might say it was a good game and
the other team might say it was a bad game. “Good”
and “bad” are opinions about that game.
Look at the following statements.
Underline the facts and circle the opinions.
