Fever Model of a Revolution Unit 3 lesson 1.5 What differences are there between the beginning, the height of the flu, and the end? Describe the progression of an illness like the flu.
Fever Model of Revolution Much like an illness, revolutions can also be studied in stages
Incubation Stage
Incubation Stage In an Illness A person becomes infected with illness Symptoms haven’t started In a Revolution Range of long term causes - political, social, economic, intellectual Can fester for years without any action
Symptomatic Stage
Symptomatic Stage In an Illness Starts to show symptoms in an observable way Cough, temperature may rise, may feel weak and queasy In a Revolution Direct action resulting from issues in incubation stage May include publication of works demand change, riots, or other direct responses to problems
Next box: Symptomatic Phase list down the events or ideas that would be part of the symptomatic phase of the American revolution Again, you should come up with at least 5
Crisis Stage Crisis Stage
Crisis Stage In an Illness Critical stage Either the fever breaks after getting worse OR The illness gets progressively worse and kills the individual In a Revolution Involves direct conflict - either through debate or a war. Can be prolonged or short Successful revolutions survive this stage - those that don’t are considered failed rebellions.
Convalescence Stage Convalescence
Convalescence Stage In an Illness In a Revolution The person might be weakened and susceptible to future illnesses The person might recover after a time, with new knowledge and experience that might prevent future illnesses In a Revolution Involves recovery from the Crisis Stage -sometimes taking years Issues that caused revolution are addressed - though everyone may not be satisfied.
Your Turn Draw 4 boxes and label them: Now: incubation phase symptomatic phase crisis phase convalescence or recovery phase Now: write down the things you think were part of the incubation phase of the American Revolution You must have at least 5 things
Create a chart Incubation Phase Use your notes and pages 40-46,54-58 List all ideas, events, social issues, economic issues, political issues Turning point: identify the TP in each phase Symptomatic Phase Now place the above ideas in chronological order. Write 2 sentences how each idea/event contributed to the incubation phase
things that can go into the Incubation Phase Magna Carta (1215) English Bill of Rights (1689) -no excessive fines/bails -no cruel punishment -habeas corpus -Parliament French – Indian War Enlightenment Hobbes Locke Montesquieu Rousseau Voltaire contract representation.(Hobbes) Natural rights (Locke) Symptomatic Stamp Act Taxes: no representation
5 things that can go into the Symptoms Phase Incubation Phase Symptomatic Phase Stamp act Sugar Act Declaratory Acts Intolerable Acts Boston Tea Party Boston Massacre Second Continental Congress Shots at lexington and concorde Crisis Phase Recovery Phase
Now add things that would go in the Crisis Phase box Incubation Phase Symptomatic Phase Crisis Phase Recovery Phase
