The Revolutionary War

In this unit, we'll learn about how America gained its independence from Britain! Did you know the first American to die in the Revolutionary War was African American? His name was Crispus Attucks, and we'll learn about him.

Before the Revolutionary War, "America" did not exist. This causes us to continue to examine the question, "What is America?"
