"America's Fight for Independence
and the Creation of a New Nation"
Brief Summary of Unit 4:
This unit focuses on the struggles and success of America’s expansion and their fight for independence. Students analyze the cause and effect of America’s struggles. The United States established a new government and grew larger as more people arrived and lands were acquired. Social and economic differences divided the nation and led to war. Freedom was so important to the colonists; they were willing to suffer terrible hardships to win it. Students leave with an understanding that America began to reunite but would continue to face many challenges.
