Hey everyone! Today we reviewed technology used during World War I, but we specifically discussed the role of the United States during the war. We discussed the motivation the American troops injected into the extremely deadly war. We also discussed the role of African Americans to the war and the discrimination they faced while fighting in the war. We also discussed how events led to armistice signed on November 11, 1918.
For homework, you are to use the information you learned today and the information you learned in World History to create a monologue based on the details of fighting in the war. The monologue should be from an African American soldier during the war and what he faced while he was over there. You should include what he saw or experienced while fighting, any discrimination he encountered, and the psychological effects of the war. The monologue should be about 2 minutes long. You may present your monologue on Monday if you wish.
Have a great night!

P.S.- According to the Periods 1-2 class, we will be having our test on WWI on Friday (a shorter test than usual). Since I was unable to ask Period 3-4 whether they would like to take the test on next Friday or when we get back from break, I will give them the same choice when we meet on Monday. Please start studying now! Your study guides will be sent to you via email over the weekend. Have a great night!
