At the beginning of class we went over the map of the United States for out daily studying of the map. Once the map studying concluded Mr. Bruns showed us a website called Flipgrid which is a website that allows you to answer questions about the United States and Syria in a way of video response. Following that we talked about the United Nations. The U.N. was formed after WWII to help with the League of Nations which was suffering at the time. Then the security council came into the discussion and how 5 countries make it up coutriesre U.S., UK, France, China, Russia. These 5 countries are the ones the wage war. Next we watched a video about a U.N. surveillance video that went to an inspect site and was shot by snipers. The inspect site was where U.N. leaders think chemical warfare was used to kill Syrian people. After that video we watched a very graphic video at the sites where chemical weapons are believed to have been used and how dead bodies are just lying everywhere. Obama was interviewed about what the U.S. plans on doing to help the Syrian people. For the remainder of the class we resumed work on our Social World Issues project.
