Conclusions about Liberty

Happy Friday!

You'll sit with your partner for the first part of class today.

We'll start today by reviewing the quiz you took yesterday about the Declaration of Independence.

Then, we'll turn our attention to the events at Vally Forge during the start of the Revolutionary War. We'll look at Emanuel Leutze's "Washington Crossing the Delaware" painting:

Then with your partner you'll read Thomas Paine's "The American Crisis." For the activity that follows, you will refer to this version of the document: "American Crisis" in sentences.

For the second part of class you'll be with your groups. We'll review the essays by Zinn and McCullough. We'll finish with a poster-making activity - you can find the directions here.
