Imagine you are a representative at the Second Continental Congress in May 1775. What do you think the colonists should do in the conflict with Great Britain? Should they keep the peace, or should they declare war against the British?
Write one paragraph explaining your point of view to other members of the congress.
when I did this lesson I thought that they should keep peace mainly because I don't like war, I think war is a bad idea and it could go on for days, weeks, months or even years.
