8th grade investigates WWII
The 8th grade American Studies class is currently studying WWII from the point of view of different factions and nationalities, looking at both heroes and villains. WWII was a major transformative event in world history and it helped launch the United States into its role as one of the world’s military superpowers. Here students are organizing images from the National WWII Museum into chronological order.
As a resource to help them identify and explain some of the images, they were able to refer to the 7 interpretive panels of the traveling WWII exhibit from the Gilder Lehrman Institute that is temporarily set up in our library.
