For all the assignments, the reading for the course, are “voices of freedom” and Give me liberty by Eric Foner.

Lesson 3:

Based on these three documents, the Foner readings (selections from Ch. 2-4, see syllabus!), and the study guide, how do you think the religious fervor of the Puritans differed from that of the Great Awakening? What ideas were central to these two different periods? What motivated their religious practices?

Lesson 4:

From this document, what can you glean about Pontiac’s (and Neolin’s) strategy for convincing other Native Americans to follow them in attacking the British? Why do you think they tried such a strategy? Make sure to use the study guide and Foner reading (Ch. 4) to inform your answers.

Lesson 5:

Pretend you are an historian with only these four documents to work with, and you must teach a class of eighth graders what the Revolution meant to ordinary Americans. What one insight could you draw from each document to explain the meaning of the American Revolution? Make sure to include context both from the Study Guide and the Foner reading (chs. 5-6) in your answer!

There is no requirement for the word count, but please answer all the questions in detail.

Thank you
