A Day (Periods 9-10): WWI Battles

Hello everyone!  Today we assessed why WWI soldiers could no longer fight on open ground using conventional methods.  We analyzed the usage of trench warfare during the war and the new weaponry that played an integral part within the conflict.  For homework, please research the following battles and write a brief description of each.  Some of these battles are located within your textbooks.

1.)  First Battle of the Marne
2.)  Battle of Verdun
3.)  Battle of the Somme
4.)  Gallipoli Campaign
5.)  Second Battle of the Marne

Please also remember that your revised DBQs and Self-Evaluation forms are due on Tuesday.  You will also have a quiz during class on that day.  Please begin to study ASAP; Relay for Life will tire everyone out over the weekend and you do not want to be caught unprepared for the assessment.

Please email me if you have any questions.  Have a great day!

~Mr. Mazur
