2.) What forced the British to leave Boston?
The colonists firing upon them from the higher ground position of Dorchester Heights forced the British to leave Boston.
3.) What is Common Sense?
Common Sense is a pamphlet written by Thomas Pain which presented the argument to colonists as to why they should seek independence from Great Britain. The document was able to persuade some Americans to join in the fight for independence.
4.) Why did it take colonists so long to declare independence?
Student responses will vary; they may include:

1. About 75,000 troops, the exact number <u>To me</u> remains unknown as of now.
2. It's actually in the Phillipines, where a very well known US Military base remains on to this day.
3. Despite with heavy grit and determination they held out for 3 months. They surrendered... And I think we know how the Japanese treat those who surrender...
4. (If not) They are horrifically treated. they are starved. Beaten. Used as bayonet practice. Shot. Marched into their own graves. Basically the POW version of the holocaust on US Soldiers by Japan.
5. Who knows? I think there are still bodies being discovered. Thousands, not hundreds. Thousands died. The exact figure (Again) remains unknown <u>To me. </u>
6. Soldiers who escaped... Spoke of these horrors. Either that or locals (Again) spoke to the soldiers about these horrors. No one should go through that. It's a miracle any of them even made it out. If anything, the Japanese would've executed them all. Eventually.
They made supplies. They did things such as make weapons and tailor uniforms.
