  5. The unit Declaration Day connects to our essential question. The American Revolution believed in changing Britain’s ways. The Patriots didn’t want to be under Britain’s control anymore; they believed in liberty and justice for all. It connects with our essential question because people in the 1700’s changed the government and the colonies. Now, these days’ people change the same things. These days people self-govern themselves like they did back then.

  18. Well, to me it connects because all the event and issues that we went over made changes in history. Which relates to how we can change our community, country and In some ways the world. The British colonists, by doing all the acts they did changed history. Think of us like modern colonists if we take action and speak up we can make changes too. That is how the Declaration Day relates to our essential question.
