Many issues divided England and her American colonies and led to the Revolutionary War. This cartoon-style production covers the divisive issues of land, trade, taxes, and freedom, and discusses such influences as the French and Indian War, the Navigation, Stamp, Townshend, and Tea Acts, and the presence of British troops in the colonies. It highlights the political leaders of the day, and explains the reasons for the firing of that “shot heard around the world.” The DVD includes a printable teacher guide featuring reproducible handouts, activities, exercises, vocabulary words, and other related materials. Recommended for grades 4-10. 18 minutes.
