Party Like it's 1773

This Webquest assigns students to write a newspaper article either "for or against" the actions of the Sons of Liberty (the Boston Tea Party). I liked the approach of this assignment. The instructions were clear and creative. I especially loved the "interviews". There are pictures of characters (hand drawn), you click on their face and you can read their story.

  1. Outstanding! I also love how the interviews even have links within that clarify their "discussions." I think it was Elizabeth's interview that included a link to a song from that time... having to do with the women not purchasing Brittish goods... and you can actually LISTEN to the song! Great stuff!
