Today, the students were introduced to the photographs, documentation and ultimatums associated with the assassination of Franz Ferdinand (the "spark" event of the European "powder keg" leading to World War I).
Following the visual presentation, the instructor discussed the implications of the assassination in conjunction to the four causes of WWI (nationalism, imperialism, militarism and alliances). Students were given the Unit 6 Timeline and Vocabulary Words, in addition to the Vocabulary Worksheet.
WH Honors Homework: Finish Unit 5 Notebook assembly, read the Scourge of War handout and begin working on Unit 6 Vocabulary (as you read in Chapter 13).

About Me
- Mr. Gull
- Before I became a high school history teacher, I spent 14 years in the corporate world where I specialized in Healthcare Administration. In addition, I spent 3 1/2 years participating in professional sports (Satellite Professional Tennis Tour and Professional Golf Mini-Tours). In 2005, I found I really loved working in the classroom, so I returned to graduate school to earn my Masters degree in Education. I CAN'T IMAGINE DOING ANYTHING ELSE...I LOVE WORKING WITH MY STUDENTS!
