Week of January 10-14

SOCIAL STUDIES
Our study of World War II will continue this week with a review of the war’s first few battles in Poland, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union. Other German facts students will discover include:

* countries that made up the Allied Powers
* countries that made up the Axis Powers
* bombing of London (blitzkrieg)

The last portion of our week will focus on the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. Students will read a first-hand account of the sights, sounds, and events of that fateful day. A thorough class discussion/reflection of these events will lead to an in-class writing assignment on Monday and Tuesday of next week.
