11/12-We finished looking at the Cartoons from last week. I talked about the different perspectives and how there was both a positive and negative view of America's actions. We finished by looking at the spread of America's empire in Hawaii, China, and Panama. Also how America's Great White Fleet showed off to the world that we were a force to be reckoned with. You had quickwrite 6 that is attached in the notes.
11/13-We finished looking at the Panama Canal, and as the video clip we watched said, made America a new superpower for a new century. At the end of class students looked at the Big Stick, Dollar and Moral Diplomacy. How 3 different presidents interacted with other nations. I am not able to post the panama canal video but they do discuss it was the greatest achievmeent in American history possibly as well as what puts us on top possibly in world power.
