I started with a homework check, and then moved on to explain the next historical thinking concept we will be working on &#8211; Cause and Consequence. For every Cause\/Event there are always Consequences. I have a short lecture on the Causes of the American Revolution and then students started on their homework. They must fill in a chart about the 5 main causes of the American Revolution &#8211; they must fill in every cause, consequence and draw an illustration. All information can be found in the PPT Notes I provided. Cause and Consequence chart is due next day, Friday the 8th!
