National History Day Website Project: The Boston Massacre The Spark That
Ignited The American Revolution
Our process began with picking a topic. We started with the American Revolution then decided to focus on the Boston Massacre. We chose to do a website for our presentation.
We collected information from a variety of resources by exploring websites, reading books, and watching videos. We did a lot of revising and editing throughout the process to make final decisions. This has been a learning experience that has taken almost five months to complete.
The Boston Massacre is a story of conflicts between the British and the colonists that became a propaganda opportunity for American patriots who were already calling for independence. They went to war, won, and our nation was born.
We determined the Boston Massacre was not really a massacre, but just a street fight that went sour. This turning point in American history has been called the spark that ignited the American Revolutionary War.
