Our 3rd unit of the year is rather short but focuses on an essential piece of our nation's history - the Revolutionary War. We will look closely at famous persuasive literature written / spoken prior to and during the time of the Revolution to understand the climate, logic, and wishes of our ancestors. Ultimately, we will connect these to our current society. Check the October and November calendars to view homework, readings, and activities associated with this 2 week unit of study.
