Could George Washington lead an underfunded, poorly paid, untrained army of part-time soldiers to victory against the highly-trained, well-equipped professional army of the British Empire? He could. He did. And in this class, you'll learn how he did it. From the skirmishes at Lexington and Concord to the final battle at Yorktown, you'll meet the Patriots and Loyalists, soldiers and officers of both sides, the generals, diplomats, spies, and mercenaries, as well as the ordinary men and women who each played a role in this epic struggle between the American colonies and the British Crown. Lesson 1: The Shot Heard Round the World Preparation of militias * Patrick Henry's Give me Liberty speech * Minutemen * Paul Revere's Ride * Battle of Lexington and Concord * Concord Hymn Lesson 2: The Whites of Their Eyes Second Continental Congress * petition to King George III * George Washington * Continental Army * Bunker Hill Lesson 3: We Hold These Truths Loyalists and Patriots * Thomas Paine's Common Sense * Declaration of Independence * Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson Lesson 4: A Part-Time Army Strengths and weaknesses of the combatants * African American participation and perspectives * Contributions of women Lesson 5: The Crossing Battle of New York City * Nathan Hale * checkerboard strategy * The Crossing * Trenton and Princeton * Hessians Lesson 6: A Turning Point Hudson River strategy * John Burgoyne * William Howe * Horatio Gates * Battle of Saratoga * alliance with France Lesson 7: The Coldest Winter in America Valley Forge * Frederick von Steuben * Marquis de Lafayette * Lesson 8: A Swamp Fox and a Victory at Sea Southern Strategy * Savannah * Charleston * guerilla warfare * Francis Marion * George Rogers Clark * John Paul Jones * Bonhomme Richard * Serapis * Benedict Arnold Lesson 9: The World Turned Upside Down Charles Cornwallis * battle of Kings Mountain * Yorktown * Rochambeau Each week students will: • view a recorded lesson that introduces the content • view a recorded lesson that demonstrates a reading comprehension skill • independently read and respond to written texts, videos, and images • practice rare-word vocabulary on Quizlet (no student account necessary) • complete a challenge activity In addition to the prerecorded lessons, I will provide a study exercise for each lesson that focuses on a discreet skill, such as summarizing, taking Cornell Notes, creating a content web, or using question-answer relationships to answer questions about a nonfiction text. My teaching style is one of starting with a question and generating additional questions that often lead to unexpected connections and discoveries. Each lesson will include a discussion of the sources from multiple perspectives, both primary and secondary, whether any of these sources contain bias, and whether there are areas of disagreement regarding the facts or interpretation. Please note: There are no scheduled live video lessons. Students will be expected to complete the weekly assignments and participate in the padlet activities at their own pace. This course format works well if your learner prefers independent pacing or is uncomfortable with live video classes.
學習目標
Students will become familiar with the context, events, and luminaries of the American Revolutionary War and gain background knowledge and rare-word vocabulary from a specific domain that will enhance their reading comprehension of nonfiction text.

父母的引導和規範
The content and resources for this class are age-appropriate for upper elementary students. If any content is inaccurate or culturally insensitive in any way, I will treat this as a teachable moment to clarify any inaccuracies or culturally inappropriate information or ideas. Students will use two outside resources, padlet and quizlet, both of which are on the Outschool approved list of outside resources that comply with COPPA. Students will use padlet to pose questions, share images, and interact with each other. Students will practice vocabulary using quizlet. Neither of these resources requires students to establish accounts.

All of the resources used for this class are available online at no cost.
