This DBQ is designed for a PreAP student. If you are looking for a DBQ for a regular class – please look at this version. If you would like both at the same time, you can find them here.

Students will begin this lesson with an anticipation guide and handout while they analyze the Principles of a Just War. They will then read a background essay and discuss the events leading to the American Revolution. After they have completed the graphic organizer, they will analyze different primary sources on three different documents. An outline is provided to guide students in the final step, writing an essay using the documents.
