The last two days in class we talked mostly about Paul Revere's ride. We got into pairs and looked at a sheet with important key things that happened when Paul Revere and the others rode and told everyone that the British were coming. We looked at the poem that was written about  Paul Revere and his ride. We then had to create another poem and use these key points in it. It was a challenge because of the rhyme scheme and you had to try and find the right words to go into it. Over all it was a fun activity though. We also got back our tests that we took and we received the next big project. Today in class we looked at how eye witness accounts may not always be true. We read a persons view on what really happened the night of the Boston massacre and who fired the first shot. We found the majority of them was false if you were British then you blamed it on the Americans and if you we're American then you blamed the British. There was one account written a week after the event written by a British soldier. In his legal paper he wrote that he didn't know who fired the first shot but he knew that the British fired the next one. This man took the blame for something's and for others he said the Americans did it. We found this to be one of the more likely true statements but it was still written a week later so it may have happened differently then the way it was written. We also watched a video on how eye witnesses sometimes get it wrong that they don't always get it right and blame the wrong person or they just don't remember the real events that well expecially if it was a week or more after the actual event occurred. I found this Ted talks video very interesting and hope that we watch so more in the future they really help to put things into the right light. And they get you. Thinking about everything that is happening.
