World+War+I+Unit

=World War I-The Great War = Welcome to my World War I Unit webpage! We study World War I, or the Great War, through our textbook chapters 22 & 23. We also use additional materials to supplement the textbook, for example, World War I literature, Propogand Posters, and feature the last surviving WWI American Hero, Frank Buckles who recently passed. I have attached a unit guide, supplementary material, assignments and supplementary websites. Our unit covers topics that lead up to American being a world power, such as imperialism in the pacific, particularly Hawaii, China, and Japan; and the Spanish American War. It also covers specific topics relating to the war, such as the four "isms": imperialism, isolationism, militarism, and nationalism, trench warfare, doughboys, the war at home, and the plan for peace.
