Week of September 28, 2015

DON'T FORGET FRESHMAN ACADEMY FIELD TRIP FORMS FOR OCTOBER 14, 2015

As a quiz grade this week I will ask you to write a short memoir from the trenches.  What do you see, hear, smell, taste and touch in the trenches?  

This week we will be looking at the rise of Mussolini, Hitler, and Stalin after WWI.  Why do you think people were looking for strong leadership after WWI?  Why was the post war period referred to by some as "a time of confusion" or a period of the "lost generation"?

Bookwork due by the end of next week.
