Colonialists
at War
Objective:
We will learn about the events of
the Revolutionary War.
Ustaadhah Mariam Annor
What is a Mercenary?
 a soldier from another country paid to
fight for another country
 A professional soldier who is hired
 Ethan Allen was an outspoken Patriot. He
commanded a group of Vermont Soldiers called
the Green Mountain Boys.
 Earlier in the war, they captured Fort
Ticonderoga. They seized British cannons that
the colonists needed.
 George Washington needed the cannons. When
they surrounded Boston they used them to force
the British out.
 Henry Knox was given the task of moving the
cannons, but the 50 cannons weighed over 5,000
pounds each.
 With horses pulling, they built sleds and dragged
the cannons over the snow.
 People cheered them on as they passed villages
and towns with their load.
• Washington put the cannon on a hill and
scared the British out of the fort.
• The British had the best navy in the world.
Their soldiers were well trained and
equipped. They were also able to hire
mercenaries to help fight the war. King
George was determined to defeat the
Americans.
The Americans placed a spy in the British army.
His name Nathan Hale. Sadly, he was
discovered and hanged.
The lowest point for the Americans came in
December 1776. The troops were walking
across New Jersey and crossing the Delaware
River. They camped in Pennsylvania. There was
a shortage of food and clothing. The soldiers
were often sick, cold, and hungry.
 George Washington decided to make a
move. The German mercenaries held Trenton,
New Jersey.
 These troops were known as Hessians
because they came from the region of Hesse
in Germany
Washington wanted to take them by surprise.
He chose to attack on December 25th at night.
 Washington’s soldiers began crossing the
Delaware River after dark. The night was cold
and stormy.
 It was difficult to navigate the water because
of ice floats. They attacked Trenton early the
next morning.
 They captured the town and took nearly
1,000 Hessian prisoners. This victory gave
them new hope.
Classwork

soldiers that night in 1776.
