| There were two treaties of Velasco: one public and one secret. The public treaty stated that Santa Anna agreed to never fight against Texas again, that he would withdraw all Mexican troops from Texas, and that he would exchange all POW's. In the secret treaty however, he agreed to work for Mexico's recognition of Texas independence, and work to establish Texas' border at the Rio Grande. In return for signing the treaties, Santa Anna was to be released without harm. | Be familiar with the Treaty of Velasco... What did Santa Anna agree to? |
| The Runaway Scrape was a time when families living in San Antonio and Gonzales panicked when they heard of Santa Anna's advance and Houston's retreat. When they heard of the massacres at the Alamo and Goliad, they packed up and fled east. | What was the "Runaway Scrape?" |

| Fannin's defeat motivated the Texans to fight back. They were angered by Santa Anna's orders to have all the prisoners of war (POW's) at Goliad shot, and were more invigorated to battle for their freedom. Texan troops wanted revenge on the Mexicans, and they were more than ready to fight. With the combination of the Alamo and Goliad, I think that the Mexicans were unwise to keep provoking the Texans. Even though they had seen how brace the determined Texas was already, they continued to battle against them. Mexico should have known these problems would only lead to a full-scale rebellion. | How did the defeat at the Alamo and the Goliad massacre effect the Texas troops? |
| Santa Anna's troops ran out of supplies after entering Texas. Because Houston had burned most sources of more supplies and the people of Texas were hostile towards the Mexican army, they had no chance or place to re-stock. They were tired and worn out after long marches; overall, the long journey was very exhausting. I think that this definitely slowed the Mexican troops down, and made them more vulnerable towards the Texans, even though they greatly outnumbered them. | How did Santa Anna's troops fare as they marched through Texas? How did this effect the outcome of the war? |
| Sam Houston and James Fannin were very different in their leadership styles. Fannin was indecisive, and did not follow the commanders above him. He did not plan out battle strategies or react under pressure well. On the other hand, Sam Houston was wise and experienced in battle. He knew what was best for his men, and he planned out well-reasoned battle plans. | Be familiar with the leadership styles of Sam Houston and James Fannin and be able to compare the two. |
