WWI has begun in 7th grade. This week we are focusing on the precursors to World War I. Students should be able to explain the meaning of militarism, nationalism, imperialism, and alliances.
Today we learned how the land grab in Africa escalated tensions and pushed Europe closer to the brink of war. Ask your student how we modeled the land grab and what all they learned from it. It involves balloons, hula hoops, and lots of running around!
This video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7kp3vf1uKA, shows what we've been learning and would be a great review!
