Review of Unit Questions - What are the goals? What do I need to know? Overview of the Cold War (hard copies provided) As a whole group, we will read through a descriptive text to determine what caused the Cold War and issues that divided the United States and the USSR. Together, we will complete a graphic organizer to better understand what it was about, the causes, the organizations developed by the USA and USSR as well as the characteristics of government and economics. Wednesday, May 9, 2018 Document Based Questions: How did the Cold War begin and what "weapons" were used to fight this war? (get download in Schoology) Use each of the documents to answer the question. Be sure to consider what you know about the Cold War already as well as using Google to look up terms as needed. Remember to use "Cold War" with any definitions to clarify what you are searching for. Finish Communism vs Democracy graphic organizer from Monday. |

Plan A is for you to review using a Quizizz homework assignment and a series of PlayPosit videos and answer questions to review for our state exam in a few weeks. This would be individually completed.
Plan B is also individual and will be required if you are not on task for the PlayPosit. I would choose Plan A.
Plan A:
1. Complete the Quizizz review. The link is in Schoology with the joining code as well. This is due Tuesday, May 15th.
2. Watch the series of 3 PlayPosit videos in Schoology that are posted for some new material and review material. These three PlayPosit videos will be assessed based on progress in class today. That means I may or may not take them for a grade depending on your behavior choices and completion of assignments. I may take all three, one or two. It depends on you, so be prepared for all possible outcomes.
Plan B:
45 Question Practice Final Exam
