  8. The next day we will watch a full documentary that covers the American Revolutionary War. There will be a pop quiz immediately following the documentary to insure student participation.

  9. DEBATE The class will be divided into two teams. There will be multiple topics that we have discussed as a class involved. Team A will take a colonists point of view towards the issue and Team B will be the exact oppisite. Each time an issue is addressed the teams will swap their points of view.

  10. Homework Following the debate the students will be given a few assignments to accomplish. I will hand out a crossword puzzle and word search that has vocabulary words that pertain to the American Revolution. They will also be given a topic from the debate that they will need to elaborate on in a one page paper. In order to get the students to use technology they will need to make a 5-10 slide PowerPoint on their topic that goes along with their paper. Finally I will hand out a study guide for them to use to study for the 20 question multiple choice test on Friday.
