US History - The 13 Colonies

This bookmark is for informational resources that students can use to learn more about the 13 British Colonies. Intended for an 8th grade US History class. It includes a video that I would ideally print out a transcript for. This last source is going to be helpful for any potential ELL learners because sometimes watching and listening is easier than reading English if it is not your first language. The transcript would add another element to help in their understanding of the content
