In-Class:

• Journal: Why must we, as individuals and a community, fight to end in justice? Do we have an obligation to do so?
• We did a KWL on the Vietnam war.  In the first column, students wrote what the KNOW about the Vietnam war.  In the second column, they wrote what they WANT to know about the Vietnam war. Then, they shared with each other to find out if they could learn new things that they wrote in the third column of what they LEARNED.
• We watched this video clip and read the summary beneath it to understand a little more about the Vietnam war: http://www.history.com/topics/vietnam-war/vietnam-war-history
• Students were each given an article to study about the Vietnam war. Then, students got in to groups of people who all read different articles and they shared what they learned about the topic. Students continued to fill out the third column of their "KWL" with things they learned.

Homework:

• End of the term is coming- anything turned in the last week of the term gets only half credit so turn in any late work to me TOMORROW! Come find me in the choir room!
