The Townshend Acts

Today in class we reviewed the Sugar Act, Quartering Act, and Stamp Act. After the review, we worked on an assignment that was meant to relate to how we might feel if some of our rights were taken away!! Some of you were indifferent, while others were ready to take up arms!

We looked at a new act that was introduced by the British. The Townshend Acts. The powerpoint on the American Revolution has been updated and includes the new slides on this topic. Check out last days post for the link to the .ppt.
