Why Did The British Pass This Act?  The British passed this act because they reserved the land west of the Appalachian Mountains for the Native Americans. The British wanted to prevent the colonists from fighting with the Native Americans.

How Did The Colonists React?   Some colonists opposed this act and attempted to cross the mountain range into the western lands. While some colonists succeeded, others were caught by the British Troops and were forced to return to the colonies.  ]]> 2017-01-17 18:49:06 UTC https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147644108 jmillietsciorra https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147649436 Explain The Act:  In 1765 parliament passed the stamp act, this ment that there was tax on all printed materials. Newspapers, wills, and even playing cards had to have a stamp on them showing that the tax was paid. 

Why Did The British Pass This Act: The British passed the stamp act because they were deprived of money from the French Indian War. So to get the money back they taxed the colonists.

How Did The Colonists React: The Colonists were outraged they fought saying that only their representatives could tax them. Patrick Henry got people to take action. They passed a resolution-- a formal expression of opinion-- declaring it had "the only and sole exclusive right and power to lay taxes" on its citizens.  ]]> 2017-01-17 19:03:19 UTC https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147649436 kdixon8 https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147912902 2017-01-18 18:43:42 UTC https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147912902 kdixon8 https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147914097 Explain The Act:  In 1767, Parliament passed the Townshend Acts to tax imported goods, including glass, tea and paper.  The tax was paid before the goods were brought inside the colonies.

Why Did The British Pass This Act?  The British passed this act because the British wanted money.  The British needed new revenue because they were in debt from the French & Indian War.

How did the colonists react? By 1767, colonists opposed ALL British taxes. Protests of the new Townshend Acts started immediately.  Women began boycotts of British goods. They urged colonists to make homemade fabrics instead of wearing fabrics made in Britain. ]]> 2017-01-18 18:46:26 UTC https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147914097 jmillietsciorra https://padlet.com/kdixon8/lrd21k0kfosq/wish/147922136 Explain The Act: The Quartering Acts ordered local governments to house and feed British soldiers when they needed it.

Why Did The British Pass This Act? The British passed The Quartering Acts because they needed to solve the problems of the French and Indian War. The British wanted soldiers to watch over the colonists and didn't want colonists to talk about rebelling.

How Did The Colonist React? The Quartering Acts caused tension between Great Britian and The 13 Colonies. This tension ended up leading to the Revolutionary War. Colonists protested the Quartering Act.
