  1. CaliforniaMissions By Ms. Cardenas

  2. Introduction to the Missions California’s Highway 1 began as a road connecting 21 Spanish missions. You can still find signs saying “El Camino Real” (“The Royal Highway”). These missions represent the first significant arrival of non-Native Americans to California. In addition to Christianity, the missionaries brought much more to California such as livestock, foreign plants and new industries. This was the start of the civilization we have today – but it many ways it was not created in a “civil” way. Countless Native American lives were lost. This presentation gives a quick overview of each mission. Choose what interests you most for a project!
