As we enter the Battles of the American Revolution and the eventual surrender of the British Army (sorry to ruin the ending), we are going to take a look at the state of the Continental Army and the British Army. We are going to discuss the advantages both had and the disadvantages both had. At first glance, looking at the colonists going up against the most powerful military in the world, it may seem that the colonists did not have any advantages. That, however, is untrue. Using your discussion notes in class or reviewing the powerpoint, discuss the advantages and disadvantages of both armies. Task:
1.Describe the state of the Continental Army in the early goings of the American Revolution.
2. Describe the advantages the British army had and HOW the Continental Army took those advantages away.
3. Describe the Advantages of the Continental Army
4. Describe the Disadvantages of the British Army
5. Describe the Disadvantages of the Continental Army. How did the patriots turn their disadvantages into advantages?
