After reading to page 141, you should be able to answer these questions. Do so in your notebook and I will check them tomorrow.
1. How did the colonists respond to the various tax acts? Were they successful?
2. What does "no taxation without representation" mean? Why was this an issue for the colonists?
3. What was the First Continental Congress? Who was there? Why did they meet? What did they recommend to the colonies? Did their decisions increase or relieve tensions with the King? How/why?
If there is time remaining in class, and Mrs. Loftus allows you to (based on your behavior), you can play Mission One: For Crown or Colony? from Mission US.
