30 & 31 October


Happy Halloween!
File:Boston Tea Party Currier colored.jpgThe starter for today was: How do people today resolve their differences?



Mr. Peterson discussed British Laws in the colonies and why the colonists began to smuggle goods.  He also taught you about the powers that the Writs of Assistance gave to British Customs Officers.

He took you through a cause and effect discussion with British Taxes and Colonial responses.

HE discussed the events of the Boston Tea Party.

He finished the class with an assignment that looked at both sides of the issue - British and the Colonists.
