WWI Debate

The 8th graders are currently learning about World War I.  They spent last week learning about the many events that led to the United States' growing involvement in the war overseas.  Today, they participated in a debate about whether or not the United States should join the war.  Each student looked at the question from a different perspective: Pro-war, Anti-war, American government, British government, and German government.  Students used arguments from their knowledge of the chapter and they also drew on the information that they had learned in our Imperialism unit.  Students will have a quiz over the first two sections of chapter 23 on Thursday.

Questions for your 8th grader:
-What side did you take in the World War I debate?
-Do you think the United States should have joined WWI?
-What is propaganda?
