« October 2-6 | Main | To Bomb or Not to Bomb »

This week students will work in class on their five paragraph essay on the bombing of Hirshima and Nagasaki. This is not an essay on the events, but on the decision itself.
Students researched the background of these events and took notes in the Media Center last week.
Each student's rough draft should be finished by Thursday. After the rough draft has been approved, students may type their papers. The essays are due on Monday, October 16.
There will be one grade for notecards and research and one grade for the paper itself.
Information regarding this project should be in the MISSIONS section of the students' GIA notebooks.
Research links are on the blog, but students also explored COBB ONLINE RESOURCES to write their papers.
Continued discussion of the history of these events and the controversy surrounding them will be ongoing in class as students develop their papers.
