10 LESSON 1 INFLUENCES ON COLONIAL GOVERNMENT TOUR THE WAX MUSEUM Directions: You have been hired by the museum to design a memorial plaque for each of these Enlightenment thinkers. To get to know them on a more personal level, you are going to have the unique opportunity to tour a wax museum and visit with these men. They have different views about how people should be governed, and you will have the chance to ask them questions about their views before designing their plaque.

12 LESSON 2 SETTLEMENT, CULTURE, AND GOVERNMENT OF THE COLONIES ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS: How does geography influence the development of communities? Why do people create, structure, and change governments? WON T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR Directions: Imagine that your family just moved from an overcrowded, urban neighborhood to a brand new subdivision in a rural area. Your new house is fantastic, but you are living in the middle of nowhere. There is not much to do in the surrounding areas except hunt, because it is a forested area and the population is so low. You want to try to lure people to move to your new subdivision. If the population in your neighborhood increases, then the city will be forced to build things to do around you. You need to create an advertisement to try to entice people to move to your area. Remember, they probably know very little about your neighborhood, so you have to be specific and provide them with reasons their move will enhance their prosperity. Be sure to color your advertisement! DEBRIEF AND DISCUSSION: 1. What persuasive techniques did you use to try to entice people to move to your neighborhood? 2. What was the most challenging part of designing your advertisement? Explain. 3. How do you think early settlers were convinced to move to the English colonies? 4. Not knowing what was in store for you in the North American English colonies; would you have taken a risk and moved with your family in 1650? Why or Why not? 12

List and explain the 2 main reasons people came to the English colonies in North America. pp Settling the English Colonies Guiding Question: Why did people settle in England s colonies in America? Colonial Life Guiding Questions: How was life in the colonies shaped by where people lived? 2. Use the textbook pages to compare and contrast the three colonial regions in the graphic organizers. Southern Colonies Middle Colonies New England Colonies a. List the colonies that can be found in this region. b. Describe the geography and natural resources of this region. c. What is the economy based on in this region? d. Using the information above, draw a COLONIAL SEAL for each region. It should depict some of the important features discussed in this chart. Be sure to color your seal. 13
14 Colonial Government Guiding Question: What factors weakened the ties between England and its colonies? 3. How did the colonies govern themselves? pp
15 LESSON 2 SETTLEMENT, CULTURE, AND GOVERNMENT OF THE COLONIES PROCESSING ACTIVITY CREATING A CLOUD OF COLONIAL CHARACTERISTICS Directions: After studying about the three different colonial regions, pick out at least 12 words you would use to describe that region. Creatively organize the words into a word cloud. Think about the placement, color, and size of the words. For example, words that are important should be bolder, larger, and written in a color that stands out. The New England cloud has been started for you. NEW ENGLAND P U R I T A N S If you had the opportunity to move to the colonies in 1650, which colonial region would you move to? Explain your choice using facts and information in Lesson 2. 15
16 LESSON 3 DISAGREEMENTS WITH GREAT BRITAIN ESSENTIAL QUESTION: Why do people create, structure, and change governments? BOILING POINT Scenario: Due to budget cuts, teaching and administrative positions have been reduced. Therefore, our school is now being led by a principal on the other side of the county. He has quickly changed our school policies and implemented the following rules: 1. Uniforms are mandatory for all students. Every time a student breaks the dress code, he/she is responsible for paying a fine of $ All textbooks must be purchased by students. 3. All students are required to pay a flat fee of $50 at the beginning of the year for all photocopied materials. 4. Any personal items students bring on campus are subject to use by any faculty member or administrator, including cell phones, food, drinks, electronic devices, and fashion accessories. Under no circumstances will faculty or administrators be required to reimburse students for any such use. 5. Student complaints must be made in person in the new principal s office between the hours of 10 AM and 2 PM, Monday through Friday. 6. Written complaints will be rejected. 7. Failure to comply with the new rules will result in harsh sanctions. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS: 1. How do these new rules make you feel? 2. What is going to be your response to these new rules? Why? 3. Who should be in charge of making the rules for your school? Explain why. 4. How were the colonies governed prior to 1763? Who made the rules? 5. MAKING A PREDICTION: What role do you think the rules are going to play in leading the colonists to their boiling point? Explain. 16
17 LESSON 3 DISAGREEMENTS WITH GREAT BRITAIN Directions: Using pages , fill in the events that led to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. With colored pencils, outline the box blue if the event described was an action by the colonists, and outline the box red if the event was an action by the British. Outline with both red and blue if the event describes both of them acting together French and Indian War Proclamation of Stamp Act 1767 Townshend Acts 1773 Tea Act December 1773 Boston Tea Party 1774 Coercive Acts 1774 and 1775 First and Second Continental Congress July 4, 1776 Declaration of Independence 17
18 LESSON 3 DISAGREEMENTS WITH GREAT BRITAIN WERE THE COLONISTS REALLY JUSTIFIED IN BREAKING AWAY FROM GREAT BRITAIN? In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson offers proof that the social contract between the colonists and Great Britain had been broken. He states that the purpose of government is to secure people s natural rights. From the Declaration of Independence: To secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government. Directions: Do you agree with Thomas Jefferson? Reread the text in Lesson 3 and find evidence that supports both the patriot and loyalist causes. After you write your evidence in the chart below, take a stand, and write a short 2-3 paragraph response to the question: Were the colonists really justified in breaking away from Great Britain? (Check the box that applies) Page # Fact, Statement, Statistic, Questions Loyalist Support Patriot Support 18
19 LESSON 3 DISAGREEMENTS WITH GREAT BRITAIN SHORT RESPONSE: WERE THE COLONISTS REALLY JUSTIFIED IN BREAKING AWAY FROM GREAT BRITAIN? Directions: In the space below, write a 2-3 paragraph response to this question. Be sure to include the evidence you recorded in the chart on page 18 to support your response. In addition, be sure to use traditional writing conventions and include a hook and a closing statement. 19
