Events Leading up to the War (Ch 7)

     While exploring this chapter we will look at the events leading up to the revolutionary war.  In order to learn about these events we will be using Chapter 7 in our text book, a power point which includes several video clips, a simulation of taxis in the colonies (The Kings M & M's), as well as a short play about the Boston Massacre, as we use these resources we will be creating a picture book which will  in our own words explain the events which lead to the revolutionary war.
