Group Work Expectations

Important!!! It is essential to your success on this project that you read through each page of this site. Follow the instructions and ask questions.

Let's begin by reviewing our Essential Questions...

What ideas lead to the American Revolution?

 Why would a loyal colonist become a traitor, a rebel, a patriot?

 Who contributed to the outcome of the American Revolution?

 Do citizens ever have the right to not follow the rules of their government?

 What do you feel so passionately about that you would risk your life for?

We have been exploring answers to these questions together over the last several weeks through several different assignments:

Chapter 5 and 6 Study Guides

What Events "Sparked" the Revolutionary War Graphic Organizer

The King's M&Ms Simulation

Footprint Through History Project: Key Figures During the Revolutionary War

We are going to continue exploring answers to our Essential Question through our Revolutionary War Newspaper project.
