  9. I don't know much about the American Revolution but I do know about the war. I know that the war was between the settlers and the Native Americans. The all these colonies were trying to explore the land. When they got to the U.S.A they did not know that there were other people on the land. When they discovered it they took over the land. The Native Americans were mad, and they decided to go into war. Thats all I know so far.

  23. I barely know anything about the American Revolution. I know a little about the Boston Tea Party, but I don't know who thought of it, and who all did it. I know nothing of the French and the Dutch, or the Native Americans. I only know of the Patriots and the British fighting over taxes and independence. I'd definitely like to know more about how other cultures besides Patriots were involved.

  25. I know that the Americans were being unfairly taxed by the British. I want to learn the ratio of people who fought back and people who submitted to English rulership.

  26. I know that the American Revolution was mainly about the patriots and pilgrims trying to become free from the king of England. When these people heard word of New Land, they decided to sail across the ocean and move to present day America. After many month, they got to the New Land. The king got upset that he couldn't rule over them anymore and so, the American Revolution began. The pilgrims fought for their freedom and eventually won the war, and because of that we are all hear today. In this unit I hope to learn even more about the American Revolution, and the Deceleration of Independence.
