The British and the Mohawks.
B) Who were on the outside trying to get in?
The French, the Huron and the Ottawa.
RBP2) A) How did those on the outside of the fort make their way closer to the fort?
They dug trenches to take cover and built ridges to shoot off the top of with their cannons from the dirt they dug up. And while some people were shooting for cover fire others were digging a trench and building the next ridge which they kept doing until they where closer to Fort. William Henry.
B) Why did the size/weight of the cannon balls increase as they got nearer to the fort’s walls?
The lightest/farthest cannon balls where for long range and cover fire and as they got closer there was less distance to cover and they had a better shot at knocking down a wall with the heavier duty cannon balls.
RBP3) What does Nathaniel do in order to make his shots more accurate and fly farther?
We didn’t get to this part in the movie yet.
PK1) Tomorrow/today Nathaniel is arrested and charged with sedition, which is punishable by death. What do you believe sedition is, and why is it such a serious crime?

The British and the Mohawks.
B) Who were on the outside trying to get in?
The French, Huron, and Ottawa.
RBP2) A) How did those on the outside of the fort make their way closer to the fort?
They dug trenches and used the dirt from them to make walls that they could set their cannons on and use as cover while they dug more trenches and built more walls.

As you got closer to the fort the cannon balls got larger and heavier so they will do more damage and wouldn’t have to fly as far.
RBP3) What does Nathaniel do in order to make his shots more accurate and fly farther?
5th hour didn’t get to this part.

The British and the Mohawks.
B) Who were on the outside trying to get in?
The French, Huron, and the Ottawa.

I don’t think 5th hour got to this.
PK1) Tomorrow/today Nathaniel is arrested and charged with sedition, which is punishable by death.

The british and the mohawks were inside.
B) Who were on the outside trying to get in?

RBP3) What does Nathaniel do in order to make his shots more accurate and fly farther?
He put silk in the barrel to pack the bullet down to help create a bigger impact on the bullet and the silk also caused the misshapen bullet keep a straight shot instead of rattling around and then curving the shot. It basically creates accuracy and a bigger impact.
