Submission Required

Students rotate through stations featuring short primary and secondary source excerpts (Stamp Act text, Boston Massacre engraving, excerpt from a Loyalist letter, quote from Abigail Adams, advertisement about British trade laws). In small groups, they sort each source into possible cause categories (taxation, political rights, economic control, violence, influence of specific groups) and note which groups are represented. Groups create a quick debate map showing who argues what and why.
