Lesson #3

 Title of lesson: Turning points of the war

 Description of lesson: Demonstration of Understanding  This lesson will allow students to demonstrate their understanding of the one day lesson on turning points within the war

 Assignment: (describe both in-class assignment and any homework):  I will briefly re-examine important events discussed within class, in small groups students will presents their arguments for what they believe is //the// most important event affecting the war

Resources/materials needed: (include books, internet sites, props, technology tools such as document camera, etc.)  Textbook, pencil and paper, small group, media type="custom" key="9260602"

 Technology reflection:  Having the students complete this assignment will allow them to demonstrate some knowledge of how the war was won. Each stuednt will be required to demonstrate knowledge gained throughout the week. They will also be required to depend on each other and collaborate.

 Evaluation:  My only concern is some student taking the assignment more seriously than others
