1 SWBAT: EVALUATE CONFLICTS AND PREDICT WHAT IS DEVELOPING IN THE COLONIES Imperial Systems

2 Do Now HW Review: How did the Great Awakening contribute to American identity? Fill in graphic organizer: “Early Colonial Conflicts” for your conflict only

3 Significance of Great Awakening Churches lost authority  Divisions Separation of church and state View of authority  democratization 5 new colleges: Princeton- Presbyterian Columbia- Anglican Brown- Baptist Rutgers- Reformed Dartmouth- Congregationalist “Under God's Power She Flourishes”

4 Each One, Teach One! Form groups of 7 (each member will have a different conflict) Each classmate will share their findings for their conflict with their group members Your graphic organizers should be complete at the end of your group session (25 minutes!)

5 Mercantilism British economic policy for colonies post- 1650 Colonies exist to provide raw materials to “mother country”  enrich “mother country” Used by Spain & France from the start of colonization

6 Mercantilism

7 Navigation Acts Series of acts between 1650-1673 3 rules for colonial trade A. Trade to and from colonies only by English/colonial ships operated by English/colonial crews B. All goods imported into colonies had to pass through English ports C. “Enumerated” goods from colonies could only be exported to England (tobacco was the 1 st )  SMUGGLING!

8 Navigation Acts Economic effects of the policy in the colonies? - shipbuilding in N.E. grows - Chesapeake tobacco monopoly - English protect the colonies - limit development of colonial manufacturing - Chesapeake farmers forced to accept low prices - colonists forced to pay high prices for manufactured goods!

9 Salutary Neglect An unofficial policy of avoiding British enforcement of laws on the colonies in the 17 th and 18 th centuries - no real British presence - assemblies left alone - thought colonies would flourish Lasts from 1607 to 1763

10 Wrap Up How do these developments reflect Britain’s attitude toward its colonies? What matters did Parliament seek to control the colonies, and in what matters did it grant them autonomy? Can you predict what is developing and why?
