Welcome back! Today in class, we did an activity to review the events that led to the Revolutionary War and start our transition from the causes of the war to the war itself. We examined several different colonists' lives to decide if they were more likely to be Patriots or Loyalists.
HOMEWORK: Choose one colonist from the handout, decide if s/he is more likely to be a Patriot or a Loyalist, and write a paragraph supporting your opinion.
Please use the following topic sentence: “At the start of the Revolutionary War in 1775, (name of colonist) would have been a (Patriot/Loyalist).” In the paragraph, explain your opinion using HISTORICAL INFORMATION (like laws passed or events from the time period) and REASONING to support your point/s.
Document passed out today is attached:
