The Boston Tea Party

Hi,

I’m looking forward to hearing in class today about the articles you chose for your projects. Please make sure that everything is typed and that you save the files in  a safe place.

For next week:

1. Write a 100-150 word composition explaining which articles you agreed with and which you didn’t, and why.
2. Conduct a short survey of 20 people to discover what they know about the topic you have researched.

Okay, now that’s as far as our projects are concerned. This week we’re going to read an article about the Boston Tea Party. Ever heard of it?

 

Look at the picture. Guess what the story is about. Then read the article.
