China from 1900-1989
|
This series of lessons is meant to familiarize students with China from 1900-1989 with an additional field trip to soak up some Chinese culture at the local buffet once we've finished the lecture!
1. We are connecting the history we learn from the past with events that occur today. This unit is on the transformation of China from an embattled nation crumbling under Japanese expansion to the economic powerhouse that it has become today. So we will watch a youtube video on Donald Trump and his obsession with China. -why would Mr. Fitton start the unit with this (shows the significance of China when a presidential candidate mentions it; what else?) 2. Students will view "Crash Course in History - China!" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUCEeC4f6ts Students must fill in the blanks on the rear of the 11 X 17 sheet. Mr. Fitton has a lecture that he will deliver on a unit Matrix that goes over the same info. |
