POSTER ACTS Chapter 5

BELL RINGER Describe an Act that Britain imposed and how the colonists reacted to it.

SUGAR ACT Parliament passes tax on tea, textiles, and sugar and the goods imported from non-British sources. This act lowered the duty on colonial imports of foreign molasses.

BOSTON TEA PARTY/TEA ACT British East India Company was vital to British economy. The colonists refused to import tea due to the newly imposed Tea Tax. Parliament passed the Tea Act to protect the British economy which gave the company almost all control of the tea market. The colonists were angry because they did not want to pay ANY taxes. The East India Company still shipped tea to the colonists despite their warnings. The men in the Boston Sons of Liberty they dressed up as Native Americans on December , bombarded the ships in the Boston Harbor which had tea, and dumped 342 chests of tea overboard. Boston Tea Party

STAMP ACT The Stamp Act Congress was a meeting held at the Federal Hall In New York City in October 1765 primarily by members of the "Sons of Liberty", a secret organization of the American patriots, for which Benjamin Franklin drew the infamous "Join or Die" pamphlet. This pamphlet calls for the union of the states reasoning that like a snake, if one piece is chopped off, everybody else is going to simply suffer and it will be the end of the colonies. The delegates from certain states agreed upon signing the "Declaration of Rights and Grievances", which they sent to the King and the Parliament.  Franklin gave pamphlet to Parliament to them that the failure to repeal the Stamp Act could cause the colonies to strike against England.

TOWNSHEND ACTS Parliament Passed on July , The Townshend Acts.These laws placed a tax on common products imported into the American Colonies, such as lead, paper, paint, glass, and tea, while giving revenues from these taxes to the British governors and other officials that were normally paid by town assemblies. The Townshend Acts represent the continued efforts of Parliament to place a portion of the large debt incurred by French and Indian War. DECLARATORY ACTS-  Gave Parliament the supreme control to govern the colonies.
