| Declaring Independence (1774-1776) |
|  |
| |
 In the late 18th century, some colonial leaders were beginning to consider breaking away from Great Britain completely -- even if it meant war! In Declaring Independence, students will examine the events that led to the momentous drafting of the Declaration of Independence. From the battles of Lexington and Concord to Thomas Paine’s demands for a little “Common Sense,” see how the protest against the enforcement of British taxes and trade laws turned into a full-fledged battle for liberty.
