America’s Independence: Tax, Tea & Arrogant People

akina.tse1 Comment

The American Revolution started all because of the war which Britain fought against the French and American Natives League. They won, but they paid the price for it. So they wanted their fellow American colonists to help and pay, and the colonists said no.

Reasonably, nobody likes tax, so nor does the American colonists! Especially when Britain taxes on their beloved tea, colonists were frustrated. These people had kind of an argument against their motherland, thinking that the British King and Parliament shouldn’t interfere too much of their business. Why? Because America has declared itself INDEPENDENT.

So what, in more specific manners, happened? Click the video below to see more about the American Revolution, created by Alina Y. and me!

Maths Habitat Design Team Thank You and Reflection Note

Dear Chelsea and Aaron,

Thank you for working with me on our habitat design.

One of the places where this habitat connects to my story is the 17th paragraph where Zoey (the main character) stays home and waits for her dad to arrive home. Her father and she had a discussion which led to the main problem, and so this part is very important. Thank you for helping me include this space in our project.

As a team, I’ve been impressed with our ability to work together and compromise with each other. We worked together to make up a new design, figured out the dimensions, and where rooms and furniture fit and worked on it together. That was very helpful and I really appreciate it.

On the other hand, I also hope that we could have been better at communicating and sharing the responsibilities of working on the different parts of our design. I think this is important because it will help us work and finish it quicker and more efficiently. One thing I can do is work on my part and finish it when it is my responsibility to work on it.

Sincerely,

Akina Tse.
