Revolutionary War: French/ Indian War Warm Up #6: Human Rights Think of something that is not a right/not legal that you wish was legal. Why do you feel that right is not guaranteed? Why do you feel it should be a right/legal?

Objectives- Students will understand the basis of American rights ? Explain the rights Guaranteed in the Declaration of Independence Objective #2- Identify the reasons why American colonists wanted to move to independence from English rule ? Identify several examples of harsh laws that the colonists found unfair. Objective #3- Understand why England enacted harsher rules that lead the Americans to seek independence ? Explain why England felt it had to create new laws in the colonies. Objective #4- Explain how these actions pushed the colonies closer to unity ? Identify several actions by the colonists that demonstrated colonial unity? ? Evaluate how those actions were effective in sowing the seeds of a revolution?

Standard- 11.1 Students analyze the significant events in the founding of our nation and its attempts to realize the philosophy of government described in the Declaration of Independence. Objective: Summarize the historical background of the Declaration of Independence and ideological origins of the American Revolution

Lecture #4- Road to Revolution French/Indian War- English troops and American colonists fight together to kick France out of Canada **Americans like being English after war ends in 1763 but Eng. creates laws that upset Americans, which leads to independence.

Proclamation Line of 1763- prevented Americans moving west of this line *first law by English trying to control American lives English Debt- Fr/Ind. War was expensive for England, Eng. wants Americans to help pay for the war through taxes that go to England (not the colonies)

Stamp Act this act set off Americans into believing that England is taking away their rights Tax on all printed goods Affected lawyers and sailors Why is this a problem? English view- 1st tax where $ went to England to HELP pay debt for French/Indian War American view-“No taxation without representation”- idea people can only be taxed if they can vote on the tax right to tax=to right to take property Property=liberty Did the colonists have a right to be so upset? Should Americans have been given the right to vote in English elections? Would that have changed anything?

Colonial Resistance- Americans fight back against England creating and enforcing new laws Boston Tea Party- Americans dressed as Indians dumped English tea into Boston Harbor

Intolerable Acts- laws by England to punish Americans for Boston Tea Party (shuts down Boston Harbor, people forced to have English soldiers live in their homes) Lexington and Concord (April 1775)- US minutemen shoot at English troops using Indian tactics-hiding behind trees **first shots fired between English and American troops (beginning of Revolutionary War)
