First World War Readings & Checkpoints
Over the course of the unit, we will be going through different sections of the textbook in class. Whenever we start a reading, the questions will be due the next day and there will be a reading checkpoint made available after school for homework (unless there are other instructions). The Google Forms online correspond to a specific topic/lesson in the textbook.
Becoming a World Power
In his Farewell Address, George Washington warned Americans to "steer clear of permanent alliances with any portion of the foreign world." His words helped guide American foreign policy for about 100 years. There was, however, disagreement about just what Washington meant. Some said he had argued for isolationism, a policy in which a nation focuses on what is happening within its own borders and remains uninvolved in world affairs. Others believed he supported trade alliances but not military ones.
