Reading and notes- finish the chapter! Utilize your expert skim-for-understanding skills (pictures, captions, bold terms etc.).
We are creating a timeline of the battles of the American Revolution to be displayed in our classroom! It will be picking up where we left off after the signing of the Declaration and carrying us through the Treaty of Paris.
Your assignment is to create an 8.5" by 11" visual. It should include, prominently displayed, the name of your battle(s) and the date(s). It should have a graphic component, so either something you draw or print out having to do with the battle or its leaders. Finally, it should have a short summary of what happened that is historically significant.
You have creative license to expand upon these guidelines if you would like (eg. Yorktown & Treaty of Paris could do 2 visuals if it's easier to split them), but it should have at least the bare minimum described above. Think about using Google Docs so you can work on it together from 2 different locations! You must use scholarly sources but you do not need to create a bibliography.
