Kids love stories about underdogs, and the American Revolution is
among the most famous of these tales. Desperate to be an
independent country free from Britain, the rebel colonists relied
on their cunning wit and visionary leadership to win an impossible
war. And then they faced the real hardship--creating a country out
of a victorious but chaotic society. Using engaging text, hands-on
activities, and links to primary sources, The American Revolution:
Experience the Battle for Independence shows readers how rebel
soldiers fought in horrific conditions while their families faced
their own hardships for the sake of freedom. Students examine
wartime propaganda to discover the truth about events leading up to
the war, and engage in vibrant debate, strategic planning, and
literary deconstruction to understand the official documents upon
which America is founded. Building a marshmallow cannon and
creating real colonial food are some of the projects that engage
readers' design skills. Essential questions require readers to
activate their critical thinking skills to discover the truth about
the most important moment in American history. The American
Revolution meets Common Core State Standards for literacy in
history and social studies; Guided Reading Levels and Lexile
measurements indicate grade level and text complexity.
