Social Studies Sorting

Cut and sort the pictures into groups. Glue and label the groups on to a
poster board. Be prepared to share in class. Every member of the group
must participate in grouping, labeling, and speaking.

based on the American Revolution from previous lessons.

Carolinas role in the development of the new American nation.

the Stamp Act, the Tea Act, and the Intolerable Acts; the rebellion of the colonists; and the writing of the
Declaration of Independence.
Indicator 3-3.2: Compare the perspectives of South Carolinians during the American Revolution,
including Patriots, Loyalists, women, enslaved and free Africans, and Native Americans.
