Description

Overview:
Students will use both primary and secondary sources (links in lesson) to research one or a group of the 13 original colonies and create a report or presentation. They will also identify the colonies on a map quiz. Being able to identify geographical locations and use map skills is always beneficial, for both school and beyond. This lesson will also provide students with the ability to compare and contrast different colonies and explain their importance to the development of a nation based on geographical connetions to industry/agriculture and their origination and it's impact on history. (For example, the colonies that began with a king's charter were more likely to have citizens who remained loyal to Britian during the War for Independence.)
