Revolutionary War Causes Scavenger Hunt – Task Cards – Reading Comprehension

Description

The Revolutionary War Causes Scavenger Hunt is an engaging cross-curriculum reading comprehension activity. Allow your students to move around the room, visit reading passages and answer questions.

Topics include: Causes of the American Revolution, Quartering Act, Sons of Liberty, Townshend Acts, Taxation without Representation, Boston Massacre, Tea Act, Boston Tea Party, Intolerable Acts and the First Continental Congress.
