Each submission will be worth 50 points.<\/p>\n To gain a better understanding of journal entry expectations, please review the sample entry below:Entry 1<\/em>What was the Declaration of Independence all about? It was written by Thomas Jefferson but was probably not signed on July 4th, 1776. It was written after hostilities had broken out. Lexington, Concord, Bunker Hill had taken place a year earlier. Why so late? The reason might be that the colonies were not yet united in their response to Britain. Many did not want to leave the empire only a few years earlier they had boasted about. Also, taking on the powerful British empire with trained troops seemed almost impossible. Several of the condemnations in the declaration were not true, and they were addressed to King George III rather than Parliament, which had the real power. It is quite possible that the colonial leadership did not want to attack a representative institution even though it was hardly representative of the people of Britain. Still, the declaration won widespread approval and helped to unite the colonists.<\/em>Note<\/strong>: You will notice that this entry is greater than 120 words in length.<\/p>\n You will use the link above to submit your Journal #1 Assignment.After you have completed all 10 journal entries required for this activity:<\/p>\n Note:<\/strong> If you are not ready to submit the activity for grading (i.e. if all 10 entries are not completed), be sure to select the Save Draft<\/strong> button instead of theSubmit<\/strong> button.
