How would you use the reading in class? Would it be for some of the primary sources mentioned? Has anyone noticed some possibilities to create some geography lessons? What other ideas do people have?

I intentionally chose the Allison reading because I am very familiar with the Wood selection, and I wanted to read something new to me. This piece read much like a macro history- a style which I generally dislike. While it reads rather easily and is a good source for someone who has little awareness about the revolution and wants a concise overview (as it promises), I did not find much in the pages that was useful to teaching middle school students.

My colleagues post incredibly fine resources and ideas....the caliber of the suggestions and resources make me feel that I take a lot from it. It's a takeaway. And I hope that I can give back as much as I get.
