HoA - Colonial Unrest!!

After gathering information on 9 events that preceded the American Revolution, evaluate each event based on how significantly it affected colonial unrest and tension between the colonies and Britain. Give each event an "Unrest Rating" between 1 (Contributed little to colonial unrest and tension between colonies and Britain) and 8 (Greatly contributed to colonial unrest and tension between colonies and Britain). Include a rationale for your rating in the far-right column of your worksheet. One more thing - the ratings of the nine events must add up to 36.

After completing the worksheet. Add your group's ratings to this Google Survey. We'll look at the data together to see if there was relative agreement or disagreement between groups.
