Do you think children were better educated in the New England colonies than they were in other colonies? Why or why not?

New England wasn't based on farming.

Explanation:

Pretty much only wealthy plantation owners in the south with slaves could be educated, while in New England, young boys could be sent to learn a trade, such as printing or shipbuilding, and learn to read in the process, and girls could learn housework and still learn to be literate.

In the south, poor farmers usually just stayed as poor farmers, without an education.

yes i think they were better educated in the new engalnd because the education in the new england colonies was much more religious in nature than in the other colonies.  the puritan influence was strongest there, and one of the primary goals was to teach children (who are inherently bad) how to behave as moral, christian adults.  

swahili is an extremely rich and complex civilization, a set of ethnic groups articulated by a language and a series of cultural elements that fuse the african traditions, islam and indian culture. this growth was largely a result of the indian ocean trading network that brought in not just man-made riches, but also religious ideas, specifically islam, which had a significant impact on the local culture. furthermore, the development of the swahili language gave a common cultural unity to the people.
