What educators are saying
Description
This graphic organizer and set of 1-page readings is designed for students studying Colonial History/US History and the causes or sparks that led up to the American Revolution. This organizer, entitled "The British: ACTin' Up!", has students investigate what was taxed, why it was taxed, and how the colonists reacted in relation to the following acts:
- Sugar Act
- Stamp Act
- Quartering Act
- Townshend Acts
Also included with this purchase is four readings & QR codes to videos that allow students to fully complete their investigation and chart! Each reading includes an annotation guide that shows students how to mark up their text for important information.
Teachers can decide whether to fill in the organizer using direct or indirect instruction. This has worked well as a jigsaw activity where individuals/groups work on each one of the four acts and then share their findings with the class!
Happy Teaching!
