The American Revolution: Experience the Battle for Independence Tapa dura - 2015

de Judy Dodge Cummings; Tom Casteel (Illustrator)


Descripción de la solapa


How--and why--did a passionate collection of under-equipped American rebels go to war and win against the powerful British army? Kids love stories about underdogs, and the American Revolution is among the most famous of these tales. Desperate to be considered an independent country free from the unfair tax laws of the monarchy across the ocean, the rebel colonists relied on their cunning wit, their enthusiastic volunteerism, and their visionary leadership to win an impossible war. And then they faced the real hardship--creating a country out of the victorious but chaotic society they were left with.

Using engaging text, hands-on activities, and links to primary sources, The American Revolution: Experience the Battle for Independence shows readers how rebel soldiers fought in horrific conditions while their families back home faced their own hardships for the sake of freedom. Students examine wartime propaganda to discover the truth about events leading up to the war, and engage in vibrant debate, strategic planning, and literary deconstruction to understand the official documents upon which America is founded. Building a marshmallow cannon, baking real colonial food, and sewing a ditty bag are some of the projects that engage readers' design skills while essential questions require readers to activate their critical thinking skills to discover the truth about the most important moment in American history.
