To kick off our adventure, let’s imagine you just received a mysterious letter in the mail. It looks old and dusty! You gather your friends and read it together. The letter says:
Dear Young Explorers,
You are invited on a special mission! Travel back to the year 1775, where brave colonists are fighting for their freedom in Boston. Listen closely, for the stories you hear will tell you of courage, teamwork, and the desire for a better life.
Your first clue is hidden in Boston’s cobblestone streets. Look for the lanterns that lit the night and hear the whispers of those who stood together.
Can you help us uncover the secrets of the Boston colonists?
Yours adventurously,
The Time Traveler
