Puritan schools taught the main subjects of reading, writing, and arithmetic, while also teaching a lot of religion. Most of the emphasis during the school day was on religious education.
The Puritans primarily used the Bible as the core textbook for education. They also used catechisms, such as the Westminster Shorter Catechism, to teach religious beliefs and values. Additionally, they utilized hornbooks, which were wooden paddles with printed lessons covered with a transparent horn sheet.
Puritans emphasized the importance of religious education from a young age, teaching children to read the Bible and catechisms. They also focused on instilling moral values and obedience through strict discipline and punishment when necessary. Education was seen as a way to prepare children for their future roles in society and to uphold Puritan beliefs.
Separatist Puritans believed in completely separating from the Church of England and forming their own independent congregations. Non-separatist Puritans, on the other hand, wanted to reform the Church of England from within. Ultimately, the Pilgrims who settled in Plymouth were Separatist Puritans, while the Puritans who settled in Massachusetts Bay Colony were mostly non-separatists.
