In teaching the most important events leading to the American Revolution, I have my students complete a graphic organizer that includes what I consider to be the 12 most important events leading up to the war. I find it helpful to make this the introduction to my Revolutionary War Unit, referring to it throughout my lessons on each of these events individually. This assignment should be completed with the following items...
1. 13 Slide PowerPoint Notes, basic summary notes on each event
2. 2 page Timeline Graphic Organizer, student handout
3. 20 question Quiz on the events
