WHAT STUDENTS LEARN
The driving question of the video is 'what factors and battles led the Americans to victory in the Revolutionary War?" The video teaches the major battles- Lexington & Concord, Bunker Hill, Long Island, Trenton, Saratoga, and Yorktown. But it also teaches how Washington was able to keep the army together despite blunders and a near-total loss of hope including the suffering at Valley Forge. Students learn how the Continental Army, with support from the French, was finally able to achieve independence in the Treaty of Paris. A perfect supplement or replacement for a textbook reading or lecture when teaching the Revolutionary War!
***The lessons cover state-standards while making sure the content is still interesting.
DESIGN & WRITE A POSTCARD FROM VALLEY FORGE!
After the video, notes, and quiz, students read more about the experiences at Valley Forge for soldiers, officers, and even the women camp followers and then design and write a postcard to a loved one detailing their experiences at the frigid winter encampment.
