The American Revolution Begins/Current Events
Lesson Outline
The first battles of the American Revolutionary War were fought at Lexington and Concord in Massachusetts on April 19, 1775. American Patriot colonists fought for their right to defend themselves against the British, and the British sought to take colonial arms stores. The first battle took place in Lexington and Concord outside of Boston. Major American Revolutionary War events following the battles of Lexington and Concord, include the Battle of Bunker Hill, the Battle of Fort Ticonderoga, the Second Continental Congress, and the Declaration of Independence. We then looked at current events: This past Sat., the bridge linking Crimea to Russia was destroyed. What is the strategic and symbolic significance of this roadway? It means a lot to Russia and this morning, Russia is bombing Kyiv & other Ukraine cities. But no one has claimed responsibility for the bombing. Today a case before the U.S. Supreme Court could impact the future of the internet. Are tech companies too powerful and who should be responsible for harmful content on the web?
