TheTask

The last project in Two World Wars is a mock trial.  The United States is going to be charged and tried by the United Nations representing Japan for the ruthless destruction of civilians and cities; and for creating a nuclear arms race that could threaten the human race.  All students will:

  • Form and support an argument and point of view
  • Become familiar with using primary sources
  • Understand political decision making
  • Interpret rules of warfare
  • Establish a value judgment and express a set of ethics
  • Research primary and secondary sources on the Internet
  • Conclude whether or not the United States should have dropped the bomb
