Imperialism Detective Week

This week we are working on our Imperialism Detective Week activities.  

On Wednesday, we created a "Causes of Imperialism" foldable.  It looks like this:

We then set up our chart for the 7 countries.  Your chart should be set up like this:

On your chart you will include:

• Name of the country
• Draw the symbol(s) (from orange paper) that explains why America was in that country.
• Explain US involvement (bullet the main points - need at least 5)
• List and define the key words (they are bold in the reading and definitions are in the reading)

On a piece of loose-leaf paper, make sure to include:

• Decision question
• Political cartoon questions

You also need to label the 7 places on the maps provided in class.

If you need the readings for the different countries, here they are:

• Hawaii
• China
• Japan
• Cuba
• Philippines
• Puerto Rico
• Panama

Here is your RUBRIC for how you will be graded.  This assignment will be due on FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 13.
