Review 5th grade American History and see how much you are able to recall of the events from 1763 - 1774 (Proclamation 1763, Stamp Act, Quartering
Act, Townshend Acts, Boston Massacre, Boston Tea Party, Intolerable Acts).

After students have looked through the pages, have them go back to page 63 and just using the images, ask the students if what they see in the image is
evidence in support of the colonists revolt against Great Britain or if its evidence for the British to use force against the colonists.

First Continental Congress
(1774)
In 1774, the colonists are considering making the decision to separate from England and declare their independence. Some are loyalists who prefer not to
separate, some are undecided like George Washington, and others are strong in the belief to separate like Patrick Henry, Sam Adams, and John Adams.

Rights of Englishmen
Traditional rights of all English &

British subjects achieved through
various stages of English history
(Armstrong)
The rights the colonists are referring to are their rights as Englishmen and they refer to rights that Englishmen had steadily acquired over time.

Our goal this week is to identify exactly what those rights were. Where can they be found? If we cant nd them, then how can we say our rebellion against
Great Britain was justied?

Where do we have proof of evidence that the colonists actually had these rights to begin with?

Pass out and read Magna Carta handout.
Go back to what you learned about the European feudal system to understand these rights. Who had all of the power? Who made the laws? Who decided
punishments and judgements? Who decided taxes and war? Divine Right of Kings

We are seeking to nd out whether or not the colonists were justied in their rebellious actions against Great Britain. In order to determine whether they
had to right to rebel, we rst have to identify

#1 - What specic rights did the colonists possess?
#2 - How were those rights being violated?
#3 - Did the violations justify rebellion?

We are in search of the specic rights colonists claimed to have and then once we identify those rights, determine whether or not the colonists were
justied in their rebellion against Great Britain.

To prove if that was true or not we traveled back in time to 1215.

Provide more context...if an American were to get on a rocket ship and travel to planet Mars to live, we would still be an American? Would they still have
the same rights as they did on planet Earth (freedom of speech, freedom of press, religion, etc.) --Rights of Americans

Rights of Englishmen during the 15th century is the same. The new world is like a foreign planet Mars at this time.

Magna Carta (1215)
With the people you are sitting with, recall the story of King John.

What was the problem with King John and his nobles?
What were some of the rights the nobles thought they had more of a say in? Taxes and going o# to war.

We began to review the Magna Carta yesterday and we soon discovered that the nobles were asking for much more than the right to have a say in taxes or
going to war. With the new people you are sitting with, compare your interpretations of the Magna Carta

Do any of these rights stand out to you as being one of the rights the colonists would say justied their rebellion against Great Britain? Put a star by the
numbers that do.

If so place a star by the ones you want to recall for later on when supporting your case.

History is cause and e#ect. The components of the Magna Carta shown here are the result of actions that had been taking place previous. Could you
imagine what society must have been like if these items had to be negotiated w/ King John. Think about what must have been going on prior to this and
what King John may have been doing that these are the items they decided upon in the Magna Carta.
For George Washington to have taken the actions that he did, Great Britain must have violated one or more of these rights. We now need to go back in
history to nd out which specic event(s) was a violation of these rights.

Review the new circumstances of government as a result of the Magna Carta.
As a result of the Magna Carta, the divine right of kings is gone and now the king has to consult and get consent (permission) from a certain group of
people in order to gain acceptance and cooperation of his people (People in this inference refers just to the Nobles).

George Washington
George Washington is the man sent out to establish a British presence in the Ohio River Valley. Surveyor who determines the area to build a British fort.
Washington had been sent out at the same time as the French had been taking over Fort Prince George w/ the mission to establish a roadway that would allow a greater
number of troops & military equipment to travel as well as oversee the construction of Fort Prince George and establish a British presence in the area. He had set up a
camp not far from Fort D when a friendly Indian guide (Half-King) comes into camp and warns Washington of a French scouting party nearby.
Led by their Indian guides, Washington discovers the French scouting party and attacks. Kills 10 French soldiers and takes hostage 21 others including the French party
commander. As Washington interrogates the French commander (Jumonville) the Indian leader (Half-King) unexpectedly goes up and strikes Jumonville dead.

French are going to send a detachment against Washington from Forth Duquesne.




Washington and
his men return to
Fort Necessity and
await the French
counter-attack.
French forces are able to hide in the tree line and attack under the cover of the trees.

The French commander leading the attack on Fort Necessity is the brother of Jumonville, the French commander Washington had captured and the man Half-King had
struck dead. The brother also comes across the area of the battle and discovers that the amateur Washington had not taken the duty of properly burying the dead.




Washington surrenders, none of the British o$cers spoke French. None of the French o$cers spoke English. Find a colonial who could do both. Washington is given the
terms of surrender but cant read French. Signs his name to the document anyways.

France surrenders a large portion of its claim in North America as a result of losing the war and now the western border of the colonies isnt the Appalachian mountains,
its the Mississippi River.

Read last paragraph on Hart 65, Americans were thrilled with this victory.
Even with Washingtons actions, the British were still able to defeat the French and the colonists have never felt so proud of being British.
Never before had the colonists felt so
proud of being British (Hart 65)

Identify the major problems Great Britain faced after winning the French & Indian War. Do you agree or disagree with the British decision to ban colonists from settling on
the western frontier after the French and Indian War? Why?

British leaders are fearful of additional ghting that will take place if colonists keep moving into new lands. They also want to keep the colonists in one ares so that they
could be more easily taxed.

Think of the economic condition of America today after ghting a war for a decade.

British Perspective
Seminar: Have students identify all of the arguments/reasons Great Britain has for placing taxes or soldiers on colonists living in America. Students should
be able to rattle them the arguments and reasons o# based on the research they have written down in their notebook. When someone mentions one they
have, check it o#. If someone mentions one they dont have, write it in. Students may want to also ip through Hart 66 - 73 to nd additional reasons for
including an army in the colonies or for placing taxes on colonists.

In pods, have half of the pod be British and the other half be colonists. Colonists speak rst for 60 seconds based on the arguments they identied as
being their best in their notebook. Next, give the British :30 seconds to refute the colonists argument. Then give them an additional :60 seconds to make
their other points. Allow the colonists to give their :30 refutation to the the British perspective. Finally allow students :90 seconds of open argument and
debate.

AMERICAN HERO or FOREIGN TERRORIST
"Our client has asked us to defend him in a court of law (George Washington). He is being charged with inciting illegal rebellion against England in the
colonies. Our client claims that he is innocent and that it is actually Great Britain who is violating his rights as an Englishman. He has laid out numerous
violations of his and other colonists rights stemming the Proclamation Act of 1763, to the Quartering Act, to the Battle at Lexington and Concord. We need
to analyze these events and choose which three are historical events we want to use to defend our client.
Gen. George Washington
My rights as an
Englishman
were being
violated!
British Violations
1763 - Proclamation of 1763 (Hart 66)
1765 - Stamp Act (Hart 67)
1765 - Quartering Act (Hart 68)
1767 - Townshend Acts (Hart 68)
1770 - Boston Massacre (Hart 70)
1773 - Tea Act (Hart 71)
1774 - Intolerable Acts (Hart 72)
1775 - Battle at Lexington & Concord (Hart 73)

After students complete their analysis, show them this slide. Ask them the following question, Based on your studies the past two weeks, was Americas
conict with Great Britain the result of Great Britain taxing them too high and taking away the colonists money? No. It was about the colonists lack of
representation in Parliament when it came to making laws and deciding taxes and Britain taking away the colonists rights as Englishmen to have that
representation.
Parliament has the
right and authority
to make laws and
demand taxes of
every British
citizen anywhere in
the British empire.
Washington, the
traitor, is GUILTY!
This is the argument. Can we prove it with strong reasoning and evidence.

How can we prove that Parliaments authority doesnt extend to the 13 colonies?
Parliaments
authority does
NOT extend
to the 13
colonies!

Why does Parliaments authority
not extend to British citizens
living in the colonies?
Have students turn to Hart 52 and then have them take out this handout to be stapled into their notebooks or binders. We examined history to nd exactly
what were the rights gained by Englishmen over the course of the years.

These are three terms that you are certainly going to want to know and study for later on. From looking at this chart, what is the signicance of Magna
Carta, Parliament, English Bill of Rights.

Have students choose (elect) members from this class who they would want to negotiate with Mr. Armstrong assignments, projects, and work for this class.
This group becomes Parliament.
This group will approve the work students will do that is created by the Mr. Armstrong.

W/ the English Bill of Rights passed in 1689, who now decides the work and projects for the class? The students (Parliament). What happens to my
authority as a teacher? The ability to choose the individuals who are going to determine your workload is a sacred and cherished right.

rebelled! As a result of their rebellion, they were able to secure their rights to elect an assembly and....to pass laws and set taxes for the colony (last

Washington and other colonists rebelling against the denial of their rights as Englishmen during the American Revolution wasnt the rst time colonists
had rebelled. Theres a small case we can look that occurred with this man in New York in 1689.

Closing Argument
An attention getting hook at the opening

(quote, statistic, question).
Summarization of your main arguments as

to why the colonists had the right to rebel
against Great Britain as a result of the
Magna Carta, English Bill of Rights, Salutary
Neglect, etc.
Closing Argument

Exploit the weakness in the British

argument. Why does Parliament's authority
NOT extend to British citizens living in the
colonies?
Closing Argument
Conclude your closing statement with

strength and an emotional appeal that
engages your audience. Use vivid emotive
language. Reiterate your theme that
England violated the colonists rights as
Englishmen and therefore, George
Washington should be acquitted (found not
guilty).
