Answers!!!!

**﻿1. I started by drawing the buildings then moved on to the smoke.** **2. I noticed that there was a lot of smoke, also the civilians had weapons.** **3. The picture tells me that there are a group of soilders shooting at a crowd of people, but i know that it might have been the crowd of people that attacked the soilders.** **4. Both artist were not there when it happend but one says the men were attacking the soilders.** **Another picture shows that the soilders were defending them selves.** **5. I like the second drawing only because its a better picture, but i think that the men were attacking the soilders so i believe the second picture.**


 * What time of the day does it look like this event is occurring?
 * Describe the actions of the British soldiers to the right of the picture, what are they doing?
 * Describe the crowd to the left of the picture, what is happening to them?
 * Identify Captain Preston and describe what he appears to be doing
 * What could be the reason for these two very different pictures?
 * If you looked at this picture how would you describe the events of the 5th of March?
 * Do you believe this picture depicts a massacre? Why/why not?
 * List examples of bias in this picture.

**In the picture the time of day looks like its night time because the sky is dark the moon is out and the men do not have shadows.**

**The British soilders look as if they are backing up or trying to evade the colonist that are attacking them.**

**The corwd on the left are beign shot and some people are on the ground. It looks like they are attacking the British soilders.**

**It looks as if he is pulling his gun back and is defending him self, NOT attacking the colonist.**

**The reason why the 2 pictures is that one was drawn by a colonist and the second was drawin by someone who was on the side of the Bristish.**

**The picture shows the soilders beign attacked their fore it is not a massacre.**

**The picture is bias becuase of the fact that the colonist are attacking the soilders it was clearly trying to tell you that the colonist attacked the soilders FIRST!**
