TEST & Intro to World War I

On Monday 25th, Apr. we took our tests that we created last time and then began our look at World War I. If you were absent, you will need to do the following to make up waht you missed:

1) Schedule a time to come in a make up your test.

2) Read Chapter 23 Section 1 and complete the following worksheet.

Worksheet: Road to WWI

3) Unfortunately, the documentary we watched will not upload to the blog. Therefore you will need to do a little research on your own and answer the following questions in a 1 page summary:

- Which new weapons/ tactics were introduced during WWI (e.g., tanks, airplanes, poison gas, trench warfare, machine guns, flamethrowers, etc.)?
- Describe these weapons. How did they work, what problems or benefits did they have, how were they used?
- How did these new weapons/tactics affect the soldiers and the fighting of WWI?
- What advantages/disadvantages did these weapons/tactics provide for the armies using them?

Thanks.
