<h1>🍵 The Boston Tea Party</h1>
<h2>Week 25 • Tuesday • Tea in the Harbor!</h2>
<section class="lesson-section">
<h3>📖 Reading Time</h3>
<div class="reading-box">
<p>One of the taxes the colonists hated most was the tax on <strong>tea</strong>. Colonists loved drinking tea, but they refused to pay the king's unfair tax on it.</p>
<p>On a cold night in December 1773, a group of colonists in Boston decided to send the king a message. They dressed up in disguises, climbed onto three ships in Boston Harbor, and dumped 342 chests of tea into the water! Splash! This protest is called the <strong>Boston Tea Party</strong> — but it was not a party with cake.</p>
<p>The king was furious. He punished Boston with harsh new rules. But instead of giving up, the thirteen colonies came together, stronger than ever. War was coming.</p>

<h3>🧠 Think About It</h3>
<p>1. A protest is a way to show something is unfair. Why do you think the colonists chose tea?</p>
