Teaching the Consequences of the American Revolution

Educator Support Resources

Suggested Bill of Rights Institute resources for teachers to support their knowledge in the content in the Consequences of the American Revolution lesson.

These resources are for teachers to deepen their knowledge while teaching the content of the lesson.

Think of this as your “cheat sheet” to building your own background knowledge along with your students.
