With the end of the school year in sight, we will go through the rest of the class faster with the opportunity for you to finish much of the work on your own. With many students being pulled out of class for testing classroom discussion becomes difficult. These lessons will also be put on Google classroom and Nearpod so see me for the appropriate Nearpod codes.

The Interwar Period: 1919-1939
The Interwar period is the time from the end of World War I to the beginning of World War II. While this is a relatively short period of time, it included events such as the Roaring Twenties, the Worldwide Great Depression, the rise of militarism, fascism, and totalitarian communism.
Because we are so close to the end of the school year we will cover this period of history in one class period.

World War II
Next we will examine the largest war in history, World War II. We will look at both the war in Europe and the war in the Pacific. After the war in Europe, we will look at the tragedy of the Holocaust. If we have time we will discuss African Americans and World War II. After World War II, we will work on the study guide and prepare for the final exam.
