Visiting the Places where Independence was Born

Every July 4th, we celebrate America declaring independence from Britain. The American colonists became American citizens that day. However, it would take 7 years for the revolution to guarantee American freedoms. This tour of July 4th uses primary documents and virtual reality so you can explore the ideas and sights that the founding fathers shared.

So sorry to hear that your family has been sick! We built this site so people with iPads could explore the places that created your Civics class. I pulled down the paywall so that you can explore these places and videos as you are resting. (The more you hear these Social Studies words in context; the easier it will be for you to describe them.) If you want to discuss any projects through Gdrive or email, please do not hesitate to reach out. Hope you feel better soon!

We hope you are able to explore these places and ideas to come to a conclusion about what independence meant in 1776 and what it means today. If you would like to create a poster, story, drawing, or explanation of American Independence, you can share it with us here.

Thanks so much for taking the time to better understand the foundations of America.
