2 Daily Agenda: Bell Work: WOD Review Test Reflections/ Corrections Activator: Video Clip Lecture: The French and Indian War Summarizer: Short Response Practice Homework: Read Brinkley, pgs. 115-129 Essential Question: How did the Seven Years’ War and its outcomes affect Britain’s attitude and policies toward its North American colonies?

3 Test Reflection: Most commonly missed questions were in those in the new testing format (tied to a document) These generally require you to synthesize information from the passage with outside knowledge to formulate an answer The key here is understanding why you selected the answer that you did Look for context clues Use process of elimination The question analysis sheet you’ve bee provided will serve as extra credit on your test (You can earn back a point for each correct answer you choose and explain, as well as an additional point for explaining why the other answer choices are incorrect for each question – a maximum of 16 extra credit points on your test; capped at a 100%)

4 Colonial 1700s Unit 1.5

5 Our Father emerges Ft. Necessity – 1754 – Col. George Washington leads a group of colonial militia in unsuccessful battle. What reason (personally) did Washington have to lead the troops? It is called the French and Indian War, but what are the real sides? For the actual fighting, William Pitt takes over British troops in 1757 and later the British won at Quebec. Impressment

6 French and Indian War Importance Treaty of Paris 1763 ends war. Britain wins. Britain gets Canada (from France) Britain gets Florida (from Spain) Britain gets Ohio River Valley Passes the Proclamation of 1763 Colonists were not allowed to settle past the Appalachian Mts. oWhy would that upset the Colonists? What were some of the other effects of the war? Spain gets French claims west of Mississippi in compensation for Florida as well as Havana, Cuba back.

7 French and Indian War Effects Albany Plan of Union – Attempt at unity during war. Ben Franklin’s idea and “Join or Die” snake cartoon Why did both Britain and some colonies not like it? Proclamation of 1763 outrage Colonists see “Redcoats” Territory Gains – 17 colonies Cajuns East and West Florida Taxes to pay for war

8 Taxes Sugar Act (1764) – direct tax but aimed to stop illegal trade with Spain and France In many ways an enforcement of what laws? Direct and Indirect taxes – what’s the difference? Prime Minister George Grenville adds new taxes to pay for war. Colonists felt they were internal taxes, and they should be able to vote on it. “No Taxation without Representation”

9 Stamp Act Stamp Act (1765) – direct tax on legal papers (stamped) Stamp Act Congress – 9 colonies join together to protest act Boycotts and later repealed in March of 1766. Why?

10 Opposition to British Control Sons of Liberty – protested Stamp Act, harassed tax agents Daughters of Liberty - How would they help? Samuel Adams, Dr. Joseph Warren, Paul Revere Paxton Boys – rural PA – became famous for chant “No Taxation without Representation” Shows “backcountry” feeling isolated. Patrick Henry – gives speech to Virginia Assembly – “Give me liberty or give me death.”

11 Virtual vs. Actual Representation Actual Representation True representation What Colonies wanted How would that actually be worse for them? Virtual Representation Like a parent looking after you Briton idea

12 Summarizer: Answer each in complete sentences in your notebook. A. Briefly explain the British view of how the Seven Years’ War fundamentally changed the relationship between Britain and its American colonies. B. Briefly explain the colonial view as a result of the war. C. Briefly describe an initial reaction taken as a result of the changing views by either the British or the colonists.

13 The Growing Divide 1765 – Quartering Act – Colonists had to house British soldiers. Part-time jobs by soldiers also upset colonists 1766 – Declaratory Act – after repealing Stamp Act, Britain issued this saying that they were still in charge. 1767 – Townshend Acts – indirect Tax on imports Trials in royal (admiralty) courts – not jury of peers Led to more boycotts and smuggling

14 2 Ships Gaspee – 1772 in Rhode Island Colonist set British customs ship on fire Defendants set to court in Britain, not in the colonies Liberty – owned by John Hancock Smuggled items w/o paying taxes British seized w/ “show of force” Triggered riots, 4000 soldiers set to Boston

15 Is this the turning point? Boston Massacre -1772 Crowd of colonists harassed British guards Guards fired into crowd, filling five (1 st one – Crispus Attucks) In trial, John Adams defended the soldiers, but who did he say was at fault? Samuel Adams referred to it as a “massacre” Paul Revere’s artist portrayal

16 Tea Time Eventually all of the Townsend Acts were repealed except for some of those involving Tea. Tea Act (1773) – helped British East India Company and actually was cheaper than smuggled tea. But Colonists did not buy it because it would show Parliament’s right to tax Boston Tea Party – 1773, dumped 342 chests Led to the Intolerable Acts

17 Intolerable Acts Also known as Coercive Acts Closed port of Boston until tea was paid for Expanded Quartering Acts power Governor could ban Town Meetings Increased power of Royal Governor At same time Britain passed the Quebec Act Said Canada was separate (Canada and Florida colonies never joined Revolution.)

18 1 st Continental Congress Met in Philadelphia in 1774 56 delegates Declaration of Rights and Grievances Would meet again the next year Committees of Correspondence Formed in 1773 and 1774 Set up communication between colonies Why is that important? Supported Boston

19 “Revolution of 1774” Although not told as much, many areas declared independence and rebelled in 1774 Several colonies overthrew royal government and set up their own assemblies Communities starting collecting weapons and trained to fight - minutemen

20 Other factors Newspapers and Journals Mail system helps spread propaganda Rural discontent Scotch-Irish people – little respect for British gov’t Emergence of idea of an “American”

21 Shot heard around the world British General Thomas Gage set force to capture supplies and arrest some leaders (Hancock and Adams) Three men went to warn: Why is Revere so famous? At Lexington – 1 st shots fired (April 19, 1775) Who fired them? Eight Americans killed At Concord, British confront minutemen again But on the march back to Boston, over 3000 colonists shot at British army and caused over 250 casualties
