Current Events
                                Students learning about American Revolution

   A elementary school in Temecula has been learning about American Revolution for the past two weeks.
            Drama and history lessons  were mixed for the student to act out the important events in the
            American Revolution. The PTA President Shelly Cobb said the dramatic program brings history
            to life. The students would choose characters and pick out some costumes. Finally they would act
            out the Boston Massacre , Boston Tea party , and the three Revolutionary War battles. The
            teachers say it is a great way to learn about your history.                                                                     ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  The article talks about the American Revolution. It connects to the American Revolution by talking
           about the Boston Massacre and other important events. In the article it shows how you can bring
           the American Revolution to life. In colonies times after 1763, the king taxed the colonists on
           almost everything, and the elementary school acts out the important events to get a feel for it. So
           the students act out the American Revolution to understand it more.                                                       ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This article relates to me because I go to school and learn about the American Revolution as well. Other
           kids also learn about American Revolution. In the colonies times after 1763, the king taxed the
           colonists on any amount he wanted. In modern days people get taxed as well, but if you are poor
           your taxes are lower. If your wealthy your taxes are higher.                                                                   ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I think acting what your learning is fun and more effective than just reading and writing about it. If you    
          get a feel of what really happened. I think people who are poor should get lower amount of taxes.
          People who are wealthy should get higher amount of taxes. Thats my opinion.
