Revolutionary War Unit
In this week and a half unit, we compiled our previous and new knowledge of American history. We looked at the war from the perspective of Americans, and British in order to find all of the right results. It was important that we took into account bias, and what sources were legible and those that we not. The final goal was to earn five 'points'. You could do any number of activities that range from 1-5 points. This allowed us to show our creativity, while learning the key aspects of the war.
I ended up getting more then five points. I created/did:
-2 worksheets (1 pt. each)
-1 Writing Challenge (1pt.)
-3 Songs about the war (1pt. each)
-3 Images to go with each song (1 pt. each)
-Designed a 'Album Book' compiling mine and my friends songs and images.
The two worksheets are not digital, and the final designed 'Album Book' is not available to download. However, you can see the rest of the work I did below.

"We Can't Pay" - We Can't Stop Parody
Our tea party we do what we want
Our tea party we say what we want
Our tea party we love who we want
We can kill who we want
We can show what we want
Our tea party we do what we want
Our tea party we say what we want
Our tea party we love who we want
We can kill who we want
We can show what we want
Red coats and dead bodies everywhere
snowballs in the air from where?
'Cause we don’t know what’s going on now
Bet somebody here might lose a thumb, now

"Best War Ever" - Best Song Ever Parody
Maybe it's the way they fought (wow) straight into our land and stole it.
Through the men and past Paul (wow), just like they already owned it.
He said, "watch out they’re coming" I said, "hurry let’s stand between."
And we ran all night to duck and cover.
We used every man. Now I can't remember
Where to go but I know that I won't let them
Take our land and adjust for their better.
I think it went go, go, go
I think they went there, there, there
I think they just, ohhhh NO!

"Innocent Colonist" - Teenage Dirtbag Parody
His name is King George
I have yet to meet him
He seems like hell
I got the meeting in half an hour
Oh, how we mock
At all of his tax talk
Because he doesn't know who we are
And he doesn't give a damn about us
'Cause I'm just a innocent colonist
Yeah, I'm just a innocent colonist
Trying to fool your acts, please listen to me
