World War I

This week, the 8th graders are starting their World War I unit in Social Studies. The started out the unit looking at a pre-war map of Europe and a post-war map and made predictions about the outcome of the war based on the changes in territory. Then, they learned about the causes of the war using the mnemonic device MANIA! Later in the week they will learn about the many events that led up to United States involvement in the war.

Question for your 8th grader:

-What does MANIA stand for?
-Show me the Mania cheer.
