This is a youtube link to the first episode of the "Liberty!: The American Revolution" PBS six part documentary. There are also links to the other 5 parts on the right hand portion of the screen. The documentary is well organized, thorough and very well done. It's worth watching the whole series for yourselves but in terms of classroom use I would show clips that cover whatever specific event or events from the Revolution you wish to emphasize. The documentary series uses historian interviews, primary sources and re-enactments to tell the story of the revolution.
