Open the following links to view the historical maps on these pages. The writing on both maps should be legible on the iPads, which is why we’re using them! Try using the zoom functions on both websites; if they don’t work, drag the image with your fingers to enlarge it. Spend about 10 minutes exploring the two maps and discuss the questions below with a partner.
Questions to consider while viewing the maps:
- What about the geography of Boston in 1775-1776 made it ideal for a siege?
- What details do you notice on the map that reinforce what you already know (from the reading in the Brinkley book)?
- What’s one question you’re left with after viewing the maps?
