Lesson #3 - The Timeline of the "Great War"

We'll spend out time today going through the timeline of events from World War I.

The "Great War" - The Timeline of World War I: Click on the link to download a copy of the matrix that will allow you to take any notes that you'd like as we move through the timeline. (I expect that either this, the maps below or the "Great War" website itself will be the only things we'll see on any computer screens today...)


Expectations: A reminder that these are the things we will be looking for from your group. 

  • You have NO MORE than 12 minutes for your "piece" of the timeline. You will certainly be expected to use at least eight minutes.
  • It is not expected that you cover EVERYTHING on the list. Part of your job is to decide what you think is most important for us to know. Assume your audience will have the relevant page of the timeline in front of them as you present.
  • You will be expected to have AT LEAST three visual images accompanying your information. (You don't need to do a full Powerpoint/Keynote, but there should be pictures/maps/etc. as you believe useful.)

HOMEWORK for Friday, January 22nd

Continue your reading with Chapter 29, Section 3, "A Global Conflict." (pp. 851 - 856) The quiz tomorrow will be true/false.
