Jumpstart 10/22• Pick up your folder and a copy of the PDSA goal sheet. Our class goal is 70% for

tomorrow’s test. Set a goal for yourself (70% or above), then put this handout in the pocket of your folder.

• If you did not turn it in (most of you!), look for your “American Revolution Cause and Effect Chain” handout. For those of you who turned it in, this will be handed back to you. If you cannot find it, please ask for another copy.

• We’re going to go back over this information today in order to make sure that everyone has correct information to study in preparation for the test tomorrow.

• You should use this handout to study – as well as your pre-test – then turn it in tomorrow for a redo grade.

• If you are going to finish the slideshow in class, you will only have about 3 minutes on each slide… so copy everything you need down quickly.

• You may shorten what’s on the slide some, but make sure you get the main ideas down so you have these to study – and improve your grade when you turn it in.

French and Indian WarSUMMARY: The French and their Indian allies fought the British and their colonists for control of the Ohio River Valley

This led to…

EFFECT: Britain gained all of the land from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mississippi River (as well as Pontiac’s Rebellion)

Proclamation of 1763

SUMMARY: Concerned about the cost of continuing to defend settlers from attacks by natives, King George III outlawed settlement west of the Appalachian Mountains

This led to…

EFFECT: The colonists were angry because they’d just fought – and won – a war to gain access to this land

Sugar ActSUMMARY: The Sugar Act reduced the tax on imported sugar, but increased enforcement of the tax

This led to…

EFFECT: Samuel Adams organized protests, so the act was repealed; Colonists believe this is “taxation without representation” because the colonies were not consulted

Stamp ActSUMMARY: Parliament ordered that every public or legal document had to carry an official stamp (a form of fax)

This led to…

EFFECT: Colonists held meetings, boycotted British goods, and even attacked British officials in protest; the British repealed the act

Quartering ActSUMMARY: An act of Parliament that required colonists to provide housing, bedding, food, drink, and supplies to British soldiers

This led to…

EFFECT: When the New York assembly refused to obey the law, Britain dismissed the assembly.

Townshend ActsSUMMARY: Parliament introduced taxes on popular goods, including glass and lead.

This led to…

EFFECT: Colonists held rallies and organized groups like the Sons of Liberty, as well as circulating pamphlets criticizing the new taxes

Boston MassacreSUMMARY: 4,000 British soldiers were stationed in Boston, leading to growing bitterness. This resulted in a confrontation that ended with five dead protesters.

This led to…

EFFECT: Opponents of British rule used this tragedy to win public support against the British.

Tea ActSUMMARY: Parliament eliminated other taxes, but kept a small tax on tea – as well as allowing the British East India Company to sell directly to colonists.

This led to…

EFFECTS: Colonists refused to buy British tea because they believed it violated their right to conduct free enterprise – and American tea merchants were angry.

Boston Tea PartySUMMARY: A group of colonists dumped 45 tons of tea into Boston Harbor.

This led to…

EFFECT: The Boston Tea Party made the British government angry, leading to the Intolerable Acts.

Intolerable ActsSUMMARY: The acts closed Boston Harbor until the people of Boston paid for the lost tea, as well as eliminating self-government.

This led to…

EFFECT: These acts greatly increased tensions between the colonists and Great Britain

Jumpstart 10/22 Pre-AP• Turn in the Boston Tea Party 4 Square activity

to the inbox.

• You will use the “Unrest-O-Meter” handout to help you complete today’s activity.

• For those of you who turned in the “Unrest-O-Meter,” these are being handed back to you. For anyone who didn’t turn in the “Unrest-O-Meter,” please find this in your folder QUICKLY.

• You will work in groups of four. You may choose your group and turn your desks to face each other, but YOU MUST TURN YOUR DESKS BACK LIKE THEY WERE before you leave because other classes are working independently today.

What Doesn’t Fit – DUE BEFORE YOUR QUIZ TOMORROW!

Each printed slide consists of 5 pictures. FOUR of the pictures relates to one of the events/causes on your “Unrest-O-Meter.” ONE does not.

Work with your group to do the following for each slide:

1. First determine what event is being indicated on that slide. For instance, on Cause #1, there is (A) a bed, (B) New York, (C) a house, (D)

Samuel Adams, and (E) a British soldier. Based on the bed and house alone, you might guess (correctly) that this is the Quartering Act.

2. Next, indicate which image doesn’t fit and explain which event it is better matched to. Only a few of you made the connection between the Quartering Act and New

York on your “Unrest-O-Meter,” but there is a connection. Samuel Adams doesn’t fit here. He would be better matched to the Sugar Act (or maybe the Boston Tea Party).

3. Connect the other four images to the event. Write a sentence that shows the connection. Underline the images as you use

them. For instance, “The Quartering Act required colonists to provide housing and beds for British soldiers. When the New York assembly refused to follow the law, Britain dismissed the assembly.”

Hint: To make sure you finish in time, write down the identified images that “fit”… then you can write your sentences connecting them outside of class if needed.
