Liberty's Kids immerses students in the colonial adventures of Sara Phillips and James Hiller, two fictional print shop apprentices, as they get swept up in the history of the American Revolution.
Beginning at Benjamin Franklin's print shop in Philadelphia, students embark on a journalistic exploration of seven historical events. Each event leads them on a different re-playable quest as they pursue the latest "scoop" for the front page of the Pennsylvania Gazette daily newspaper. Students experience what it was like to be involved in this seminal time in history while exploring compelling locations, collecting interesting items, and interviewing fascinating historical figures such as George Washington, Abigail Adams, and Thomas Jefferson.
