Monday, March 23, fifth graders will be tested from home on the Revolutionary War. To review and prepare, use the resources below and your Tour Builder. Also plan to join Mr. Sweet in a live-streamed Revolutionary War Test Q&A event Friday at 1:00 (link above) to answer all your questions about the test and to refresh/review anything you'd like.
Test Preparation Hints
For studying purposes, concentrate on reviewing the following things:
1. Review the basic STORY of each battle including the "essential" details which are distinct to that battle (for example: TRENTON (Washington crossed Delaware River on Christmas night; sneak-attacked drunk Hessians; turned war around and convinced many to re-enlist).
2. Study the main PEOPLE of the war and how/where they were involved.
3. Refresh on the DATES of the main battles/events (Lex./Conc., Dec. of Ind., Yorktown, Treaty of Paris).
4. Practice the LOCATIONS (colonies) of key events (Bunker Hill [MA], Saratoga [NY], Valley Forge [PA], Charleston [SC], Yorktown [VA].
5. Review the Treaty of Paris and what the US got out of the deal; know the landforms/borders which formed the new United States.
6. Be confident in answering our essential question (duh!).
This test will be completed on Socrative on Monday. Question types will include multiple choice, fill in the blank, map questions, and an essay.
