Hello families!

 

This week we started our unit on the Revolutionary War! We have been learning about the reasons why colonists were frustrated with King George, and the events that lead up to the official start of the Revolutionary War.

 

Over the next few weeks, we will dive deeper into the history of the Revolutionary War. You can support by asking your students about what they've learned in Social Studies! As of now, they should be able to explain why the colonists were upset, and what the Stamp Act of 1765 was. We'll be discussing the Boston Tea Party, French and Indian War, and much more! Yesterday we had a fun demonstration of taxation without representation, which stirred a lot of passionate feelings in our students! We'll continue to have fun with history throughout the unit.
