Create an effective extended response on the following prompt:


After tracing the movement of The United States throughout the Pacific, how was their involvement pivotal to the allied forces during WWII? Think about each battle in the Pacific and the course of The U.S. from Pearl Harbor towards Japan. Thinking about what was being used besides Naval ships; what was important about each island? 


 
Like last week, create a PERSONAL reflection on this video regarding North Korea.  This is VERY popular news and one of the most debated topics in recent world news.  What do you think about this?  Seeing that we are currently covering WWII and you are aware of the causes of both WWI and WWII; could this be the beginning of WWIII?!  Again, this is a PERSONAL reflection on your reaction and thoughts from this video.  Share them here AND support it with evidence and/or knowledge!  YOU MUST create dialogue with 2 other peers in class by replying with thoughtful comments and effective arguments!  KEEP IT APPROPRIATE!! NO THREATS! NO PROFANITY!! If you disregard that warning, you will be dealt with accordingly (NO points and office referral)!!

Explain the purpose of the Lend-Lease Act and what impact it would have on the Atlantic Charter and the United States involvement in WWII.  

 
Write a personal reflection on what YOU think about this situation.   The thing I am looking for is what YOUR thoughts are about the killer in the courtroom.  What about his shirt?  Should it be allowed? Why or Why not?  Make sure you create a claim and reflect on it throughout your response!  After you submit your response, APPROPRIATELY reply and collaborate with AT LEAST TWO other peers in class.  Just saying, "I agree or disagree" is not good enough.  Create a discussion based on your SUPPORTED opinions!
