What led to the American war of Independence in 1775?

This is a single lesson enquiry that looks at some of the causes of the American Revolution, part of an overall enquiry on the British Empire.

I start the lesson using a song from Hamilton- ‘You’ll be back’ as a hook and discussion piece before moving on to looking at some of the key events which led to the war. Would love to spend more than one lesson on this enquiry, but this is what I came up with as a short, sharp general overview.
