U.S. History: Jan. 23-27

This week we will continue our research into the European empires of the Americas. We will place our emphasis on the British colonies and the eventual seeds of unrest in the colonies. Why did people in the colonies desire self-rule? What actions did the British take that were upsetting to the colonists? We will discuss these issues and more during the week. Later in the week we will begin our investigation of the struggle for independence and the American Revolution
