Social Studies Reveiw
Hey All,
My class is learning about the Revolutionary War, or the American Revolution. Either of those names are correct. Anyway here are two questions my teacher wanted me to answer.
Q1. Why did British Parliament decide to tax the colonists living in America?
Q2. Why did the colonists decide not to pay the taxes?
A1 The British taxed the colonies so that they would have to help pay for the war that protected them.
A1 The colonists responded by not paying the taxes because they thatouh it was unfair that they didn't have a say in this new tax law.
Other questions that YOU can answer.
Q1 Why did the colonists call the event that had happened in 1770 "The Boston Massacre"?
Q2 What kind of indians did the patriots dress up as on the night os the "Boston Tea Party"?
Just comment back.
