Paul Revere is important because he faught in all of the wars in Boston and he also told the Colonists that the British were coming by sea and how he knew that was if there were two lanterns it was by sea but if one it was by land, So with out him  America would all be British. Did you know that Paul Revere didn't ride alone he rode with: William Dawes,Samuel Prescott and 40 other people.One other thing I bet you didn't know is: Paul Revere never yelled "The British are coming!" He was told to be very discreet about who he told and how.

The battles of Lexington and Concord was all about the British trying to steal all the weapons and they were also trying to capture John Hancock and Samuel Adams. But, with the help of Paul Revere and Billy Dawes (a.k.a William Dawes) Samuel Adams and John Hancock were able to escape. The problem was that Billy Dawes and Paul Revere got captured! Then the battles started. It lasted 2 days.

# data[].attributes.body
The Ride of Paul Revere was important because it led up the the battles of Lexington and Concord. On his ride, Revere warned the colonists that the British were coming, and plotting to steal their weapons. The ride happened on April 18th, 1775. It is speculated that the idea to steal the weapons came from the wife of General Gage, the head of the British army. How did the British even get into Concord? Some people may ask this. 700 British soldiers under the instruction of Lieutenant Colonel Francis Smith gathered on Boston Common. They boarded ships to raid concord. These soldiers included eight companies of grenadiers, or soldiers who stood on the front lines and heaved grenades at the enemy. There were also eight companies of light infantry. During this time, Paul Revere along with two other riders, William Dawes and Samuel Prescott, began their nighttime rides to rouse the minutemen and warn citizens of attack. Revere rode to Lexington, where Samuel Adams and John Hancock were staying en route to the Second Continental Congress. They managed to persuade Adams and Hancock to leave the city for their safety as they faced possible arrest. Revere was later captured, but fortunately for the Patriots, this happened after the news of a British attack was conveyed. There were two routes that the British could have taken: one by land through the Boston Neck, and one by sea, through the Charles River. Paul Revere arranged to have a signal lit in the Old North Church--

The Boston Tea Party occured on December, 16 1773. It is one of the key events leading up on the American Revolution. If you're thinking The Boston Tea Party was a big fun party you will be wrong? The Boston Tea Party was a protest by the American colonists against the British government. They staged the protest by boarding three of the claimed ships in Boston Harbor and throwing the ships' cargo of tea overboard into the ocean.  Some of the colonists were disguised as Mohawk Indians.

I learned tha 1st Continental Congress  was met on September 5, 1774 in Philadelpi. The 1st Continental Congress successed til the second Continental Congress started. The 1st Continental  Congress served as a goverment to 13 American Colonies. The cause of the 1st Continenal Congress was Intolerable Acts.

# data[].attributes.body
The 1st Continental Congress met on September 5,1774. Each colony except Georgia sent several delegates to what was called the first continental Congress.
As the fighting grew closer, the 1st Continental Congress moved from  Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to Baltimore Maryland. The congress was made up of delegates from the colonies where the British decided to increase the colonies taxes. Congress sent the petition to King George III on July 8, but he refused to receive it.
This belief changed after Congress learned that King George refused to so much as receive the Olive Branch Petition. Meanwhile, Congress drafted the Olive Branch Petition, which attempted to suggest means of resolving disputes between the colonies and Great Britain.
As British authority crumbled in the colonies, the Continental Congress effectively took over as the de facto national government, thereby exceeding the initial authority granted to it by the individual colonial governments.

Patrick Henry was most famous for his "Give me liberty or give me death speech". An important line from this speech was, ¨They are meant for us, the can be meant for no other¨.
This means that the colonist thought that the British army was there for them, not for Spain or the Indians. Patrick Henry and the rest of the colonists thought that the troop were going to fight them. So, this is why Patrick Henry included this in his speech. His speech inspired many to start thinking about war. In 1760, Henry became a lawyer because he was able to persuade judges with his words. In Patrick Henry's earlier life he had ten brother and sister who supported  him  all his life. In 1776, he became governor of Virginia. This  made people look to him for answers and listened to him. Since people listened to him they realized that what he was saying was true. They finally believe that it was time for war. Patrick Henry also was a protester against the  intolerable  acts.

Abby Herzog: Problems between the British and the Colonies

# data[].attributes.body
There were many problems between the British and the Colonies. These things all led up to the War I am about to tell you them. The British made many laws that made them happy, but were unfair to the colonists, and the Colonists did some things to get back at the British. One act that made the colonies mad at the British was the Quartering Act. This law said that the colonies had to provide quarters and homes for the Red Coats or British Soldiers that were stationed in America. The Soldiers could just go into a house without asking and say ¨I am going live here.¨ I am wondering why the colonists should have to pay for the soldiers because did the colonists even want the Red Coats there? Another act that made the colonists mad at the British was the Navigation Acts. This law said that the colonists had to but EVERYTHING they needed from Britain even if they could get it cheaper elsewhere. This law made the colonists so angry that they paid smugglers to bring in illegal foreign goods and to sell their products to other countries. When the British found out about the smuggling they sent warships to patrol the coast of America. When smugglers were caught

What is the Boston Tea party?
The Boston Tea Party was not an average "Tea party" it was a meeting of people that was agents the Tea Tax. (The Tea tax was a rule in 1773 made by Britain) The Tea Tax was unfair to the colonist because Tea was one of the most FAVORITE drinks back in 1773. Also back in the day there was no sweet drinks like soda and juice so   . The Boston Tea Party started in December 16,1773. The Boston Tea Party people had a plan. There plan was some of the colonist will dress up as Indianans and go into ships and dump crates of tea in the ocean,but when the King George the third figured out what was happening it didn't take long to figure out the colonist did it.

The midnight ride of Paul Revere was very important because king George wanted to take the weapons hidden in Concord, and he knew that Samuel Adams and John Hancock were hiding in Lexington, and king George wanted them capture in chains and shipped to London, but they were the ones who planning against king George, so that is when Paul comes in. The  British officers were talking about the plan in front of stable boys thinking they weren't listening, but they were listening all right and they told Paul Revere they're plan. Paul wasn't sure if they were coming by the river or land, so he rode to a church because

The intolerable acts was a name used for a set of unfair laws. The name was given by the colonists because they thought it was unfair, or intolerable. The first Intolerable act is the Stamp Act, made in 1765 was an act that stated all legal documents(books,letters,playing cards, etc) must have a stamp on them. The stamp would show that they paid the tax. The stamps were very expensive. This act caused raids on the houses of tax collectors. The second Intolerable act is the Tea act. The tea act gave the East India Company permission to sell to the colonies. The tea was more expensive and they had to buy from them, so it made tea very expensive.  This angered the colonists because tea was one of the main drinks colonists drank. This caused the Boston Tea Party. The Sugar act increased the amount of money per gallon of molasses. Molasses was one of the colonists favorite products, so like the tea act, it angered them that they had to pay so much. It also taxed other goods, such as coffee. The fourth act, The Boston Port Act, stated that the Boston Port could not be entered until the colonists paid back the debt that they owed fr the tea they dumped at the Boston Tea Party. The fifth act, the Quartering Act, was an act that stated a British soldier could live in colonist quarters without permission from the current residents. This caused the colonists to complain that the act violated their rights. The final act, and in my opinion the worst act, The Admiration of Justice Act was an act that said if a British official could not get a fair trial after being accused of a crime, they could go get a fair trial in Britain instead of Colonist courts. George Washington himself called it the "Murder Act" because it lets British officials harass Americans and get away with it. For example, if a British official assaulted a colonist and the court said that they will go to prison, the Royal Governor could say that they could go to England to get a far trial and they could get away with it.

The Boston tea party was important because people were stinking up for their rights. It wasn't fair tea had to be taxed. I mean it was the only flavor drink there was. They did't have stuff like soda so I think this seems unfair. In The Boston tea party, people dressed up as Indians and threw tea off of the ship because they were mad they had to pay tax for tea.This made the British very angry.

The Boston Tea party is important because it was one of the events that led up to the American Revolution. The Boston Tea Party is when the colonies had to pay high tax on tea. They refused to pay the taxes for tea, and they said that the tea should be returned to England. When the tea wasn't sent back to England the colonists decided to protest to England and their taxes by throwing tea into the ocean. All of this happened on December, 16 1773.

The Boston Tea Party had the name  from 3 ships who dumped 342 chests of tea overboard.This is  how they got the name Boston Tea Party.Another, thing I learned about the Boston Tea Party is that the colonists didn't have a happy life because they had to pay a lot of taxes and that made the colonists mad so this is how the Boston Tea Party started.British get angry about the Stamp.Also, people were building settlements at JAMESTOWN and PLYMOUTH. England went to war against France in 1754. I also know that British soldiers also as Redcoats collected taxes against a colonists will.I also know that British troops meet angry colonists as they march  into Boston. Also, I know that in March 5, 1770: that's when the Boston Massacre started.Also, a lot of colonists were sticking up for each other. I know that colonists dressed up as Indians and threw tea of the ship because they were mad they had to pay tax for the tea.The colonists were that angry at that time. Everybody was exhausted paying taxes. In my opinion I feel bad for them because they have to pay a lot of money for just tea. I also think this is unfair because they were making their lives unfair in many ways. The Boston Tea Party started because people didn't want to pay their taxes. This is why or how the Boston Tea party started. another thing I learned is that a lot of people didn't have money then and couldn't pay for taxes witch made there lives  even worse. This is very bad and I hope that they survived. Also, there were many soldiers that were in the towns  and were very mean to the colonists that lived there. Another, thing I learned is that people couldn't stand up for themselves  or if they did they would have death. I think the Boston tea party is important because you could learn a lot of things from it. For example, what I 've learned is that many people were pore and also you can see how horrible there life was. I think that many people should understand how important their life was and how unfair. I also learned that colonists couldn't say there own words they had to follow the soldiers laws.

The Boston Massacre was a famous per-revolutionary incident that occurred on March 5, 1770. British The Boston Massacre was a street fight that occurred on between a "patriot" mob, throwing snowballs, stones, and sticks, and a squad of British soldiers.

I learned that the Boston Tea Party was an incident in which 342 chests of tea were thrown off a ship by angry colonists objecting it in 1773. This is called the tea act because of it being a final straw in a series of unpopular laws, to the Americans, imposed by the unfair British. This was an important moment because it was one act that led to the American Revolution.
