Discover the causes of the American Revolution with a group of Revolutionary War graphic organizers.
Causes of the American Revolution Worksheets and Graphic Organizers
What really caused the Revolutionary War? Was it triggered by the French and Indian War? Maybe the Townshend Acts… But there’s also the Boston Tea Party… So many small events led to the war that created America, and we’re here to help you teach all of them.
We’ve created a grouping of American Revolution activities that includes
- The Stamp Act Worksheet – Students will explain why the Stamp Act was implemented and how it affected the 13 colonies.
- The Townshend Acts Worksheet – Students will explain what the Townshend Acts did to the colonies, how they reacted, and how it changed the country.
- The Townshend Acts Worksheet 2 – Students will identify and write to explain each of the Townshend Acts.
- The Boston Massacre Worksheet – Students will write to explain who participated in the Boston Massacre, what happened, and how it changed American opinions.
- The Boston Tea Party – Students will explain the who, what, when, where, why, and how of the Boston Tea Party.
- The Intolerable Acts Worksheet – This worksheet allows students to explain what each of the Intolerable Acts put into place in the colonies.
