In Your opinion...
Directions:
Imagine that you are an American Colonist living in the 13 Colonies. You just fought along side Great Britain in the French and Indian War. The Proclamation of 1763 was just issued and you know that the British Parliament has decided to impose taxes upon the 13 Colonies where you live to help pay for Great Britain's war debt.
Using what you know and what you've learned, do you agree with the American Colonists' reactions of anger towards Great Britain?
Do you think it's unfair for Great Britain to have had the 13 Colonies fight in the French and Indian War, control where the Colonists settle and trade, and force taxes upon the Colonists?
Do you think it's fair of Great Britain to do all of this?
Will the taxes really be that horrible?
Is the Proclamation of 1763 protective or controlling?
What do you think?
In a well developed paragraph, explain your opinion:
are you on Great Britain's side?
or do you agree with the American Colonists in their reaction of anger?
Include details and facts to support your opinion!
