Tuesday, September 3rd

Today in CWI, we learned how to access the book we will be starting to read. On Edmodo, you go into the WW2 folder and scroll to the bottom where you will find the documents attached. Tonight, our homework is to begin reading chapters 1-5 and answer the corresponding questions in our notebooks. After that, we discussed all of the deaths that were caused by WW2. We saw that the axis powers experienced a lot of deaths. This was likely because the war was fought mainly on their land. So, not only would they have many soldiers dead, they would also have innocent civilians thus increasing the number of deaths in those countries.

  1. Also consider that technology not only increased the lethality of weapons but also the nature of the war (fast, long-range) and the willingness to accept that civilians were legitimate targets also effect the death toll.
