MONDAY - FEBRUARY 15, 2010

     Hey guys!  Today we went back over the causes & results of the American Revolution (remember, the revolution that freed our country, the United States, from England).  After discussing together each of the events (listed below), we watched a video clip from some events during the revolution. 

Then we began to work on a "flipbook" of the events.  Inside the flipbook, the left pages will all contain the events and a brief description of them, while on the right pages, we will draw a visual example of the event.  Tomorrow we will finish the flipbooks in class.
