You handed in your Chapter 7 Key Terms and Questions at the beginning of class. We finished watching "Gandhi" today. All of the questions from the "Gandhi" film study are due on Monday, May 4th (content questions and thought questions). This weekend might be a good time to do some more work on your Unit 2 Collaborative Inquiry Projects.

I gave you a package on the "End of World War II" which also went beyond to cover the "Iron Curtain Speech", the Truman Doctrine, the Marshall Plan, the Berlin Airlift, the division of Germany, the formation of the NATO and Warsaw Pact military alliances. I then showed you a video called "The Road to Berlin" which quickly covers the final years of WWII. We then watched "Cold War Confrontation". I published a study guide for your World War II Unit Exam (which is on Wednesday, May 6th) yesterday on the blog, please see the study guide here.
