Intro to WWI

Bellwork Question

• In your notebooks, briefly describe how an individual wins a fight?

• Next, discuss your responses with the people sitting around you.

Background Gathering

Continue to discuss with the people sitting around you:

• What measures should political leaders take during wartime to ensure victory?

• Should there be limits and rules to warfare?

Yes, stand on the wall with the door. No, stand on the wall with the windows. Somewhere in the middle, stand in the middle. Be prepared to share.

• Should there be limits to warfare?

Writing Extension

• You will work in pairs to create a decree of what is and is not acceptable in warfare. Students will need to come up with at least five examples with a short rationale for each. (Rationale for each should be about 3-5 sentences in addition to the particular rule.)
