U.S. History

Good afternoon everyone,

Here is our post for today:

 

Today’s Reflection:

This week we have posted one article each day examining the effects of WWII on the lives of everyday people. For your closing assignment this week we want you to select one of the articles that we posted this week (I’m going to repost them below) and compete the reflection sheet posted in the supplemental materials section. You can save the document as a word document or google doc and type right in the document. Once you have finished and saved your reflection please email it to me at murrayr@dearbornschools.org by Monday March 23rd, at 9:00 am. Be sure to use the check list I have included to make sure that you don’t skip a step.

Have a great weekend,

Mr. Murray and Ms. Colter
