Assignment Seven, Pre War and Revolutionary War Packet

Essential Questions

In what ways did the Revolutionary War develop?

Who were the key people and what were the key events involved in the expansion of the Revolutionary War?

Description 

The Revolutionary War grew from a series of tax revolts to full blown war between the British-American colonies and England. This packet will explore the time period just prior to the war and the war itself. It is not a comprehensive discussion, but it is a pretty good overview. It is a packet made up of four smaller assignments. You will need to work well, and with moderate speed. Pay attention to our notes and presentations in class.

Objectives

Students will identify and describe the key events of the Revolutionary War time period.

Instructions

You will probably find yourself using some work from your earlier assignments and their web pages as you work on your packet.

Be sure to use a separate sheet of paper for your the writing portion of this assignment.
