13+Colonies


 * 13 Colonies**

The first unit of the school year requires students to analyze how tensions between the American Colonies and Great Britain over the rights of people versus the authority of a king influenced the colonists' effort towards independence and led to armed conflict. Students will the evaluate how the Declaration of Independence formally declared the Colonies independent from Great Britain and caused the colonists' to choose independence or loyalty. The unit concludes with a synthesis of the effects of the American Revolution and how this war for independence ensured the values of freedom and lead to a democratic nation.
