Hi Students:
I have posted on Google classroom your assignments this week. Most of the assignments we will be doing this next two months will be personal response. Still, I want you to do your best. I still want you to learn, too.
This week you will be doing two written assignments submitted to me on two google documents. The first assignment is a one paragraph (you can write more if you want) response to an interview with Kim Phuc, who, as a child was a victim of a Napalm attack.
The next assignment is a bit longer--and it is a personal response to Vietnam Song Lyrics. This will be very interesting to you as you view and read the lyrics.

10th Grade Supplemental materials through April 13th
Students,
When I last saw you, we were starting the Vietnam War. Please note that we are to start posting lessons on April 13th, but here are some supplemental materials for you to view. When I say supplemental, it means optional, but I strongly encourage you.....as in if you were my child and I was home with you I would INSIST that you watch some of these.
Type in
Dear America Letters Home from Vietnam
Channel Tom Ma
All these videos are excellent primary source documents about the Vietnam war by the soldiers themselves.
If you have Netflix please watch the following
Medal of Honor
Episode 7: Richard L Etchberger
Also on Netflix:
There is a 10 part series on the Vietnam War. This is a lot to watch---but trust me, it will give you a real insight into the war.
Just type in:
The Vietnam War: a film by Ken Burns and Lynn Novick

The new reality: Covid 19 adaptions for 10th grade
Students, on Monday, March 30th, we will receive further instructions about how to adapt to the new reality of school for the next month or so. Mrs. Olsen has delayed communicating with you until we receive instructions from the district.
After that---I will be in contact. Stay safe everyone. This is a roller coaster and something you will tell your grandchildren about!
