Because World History is often a difficult subject for high school students to grasp, I wanted to

map so they could comprehend where and when the advancements occurred.

areas were controlled by what powers, and which areas were considered to be neutral during the

Future Learnings
In this upcoming week, we will finish our unit over World War II. We will continue on with our
notes about the war in the Pacific and the eventual Allied victory. We will take verbal notes as
well as complete a guided reading where your student will be expected to read and interpret one of
the sections in the chapter. From this assignment, your student will gain an understanding of how
to interpret and analyze a text.
