Learning Goal: Students will be able to explain why some colonists sided with the Patriots and others with the British.
Declaration of Independence
We will look at an excerpt of the Declaration of Independence. As we do this, lets determine what the rebels were actually saying in the document. We will use this graphic organizer to complete our task.
Together, or on your own, we will read the "On the Battlefield" section of our packet from the choices program. This will give us an idea of who supported which side of the war as well as some of the battles that occurred during the Revolution.
