Riley's Farm Reflection
At Riley’s Farm I learn how to make clothing.You go over and under the string that’s attached to the rectangle of wood then you tilt the stick and pull the string that is not attached to the wood theough the pieces tat are going under and over.You repeat that and eventually you will have a piece of clothing.
At Riley’s Farm I also learn how to make biscuits.To make buscuits it onlt takes 3 ingredients.The three ingredients are yeast,flour,and water.You just mix the ingredients in a bowl and it forms the dough.You roll the dough and form balls out of the dough.Then you put it in the oven and let them bake.
The last thing that I learned at Riley’s farm is how people greeted each other in the olden days.If you are a girl you kirsty and say “Good day sir,”and if you are a boy you bow and say “Good day my lady.”when people ask you how you're faring you respond “I’m faring well,thank you.”
I think that they had a monarchy government at Riley’s Farm,because there was a king,King George the third and in a monarchy government they have a king or queen.I also think that they had a monarchy government because in a monarchy government when the king dies his son takes place as the king and the king’s name is King george the third, third means that he is not the first or second king.So that means that his grampa was the first king,when his grampa died he made his son the king,and when his dad,the king,died he made his son George the new king.After that George became King George the third

American Revolution
Some of the causes of the American Revolution were that the 13 colonies didn't like being ruled by King George,the colonist didn't have any representation ,the colonist didn't like giving tax because it all went to King George and because the money wasn't to help the community.When did this happen?It happened in the years of 1751 & 1764.What happened?Colonist printed out their own paper money which they called colonial scrip.Parliament tried to prevent that by making colonial scrip illegal.They replaced all of the colonists colonial scrip with half the amount of British money.This event contributed to American Revolution because... one of the biggest problems that started the war was that people were getting angry from the depression of getting their money taken away from the Britain.The articles of confederation is a document that the "Free American" colonies decided upon with the rules in which to govern themselves.Some of the major problems with the Articles of Confederation were that each state had their own currency($),it was difficult to trade amongst states,The central government couldn't protect citizens resolve arguments between states,and the government couldn't ask people for taxes.The meaning behind the preamble is that the power given to ordinary & special people like us is to create a better community and bond.Also to make fair laws for everyone an to make sure that we have peace in our country.The government will protect us from foreign invaders and secure the blessings liberty to ourselves & our prosperity.
Unit Reflection
What causes people to want to change their community or government is that sometimes things don't seem right or things seem unfair and people don't like it or agree with it so they feel like they want it to change.The citizens can change their community or government they don't agree with by making other people feel the same way as them so that all together they can persuade the people to change the things that they don't agree with.
How am I knowledgeable and How do I show appreciation
I am knowledgeable by using information that I already know and combining that with new information that I learn.Once I do that I have a lot of information that I can use to answer any question that I have.I show appreciation for something by saying "Thank You" or by doing something kind for the person that helped me.
