Today we began our brief overview of the Second World War. I spoke to the main points discussed in last night's reading and then showed a sketchnote connected to the Battle of Britain. I also showed a student-made PowerPoint on the Battle. Next, we read the beginning of Chapter 12 in DeMarco. I noted that logistics are often the limiting factor in war. In the case of the North Africa campaign, both sides were hampered when their "lines of communication" became too long. We also noted that the shortfalls in equipment and machines quickly became evident when the Italians went to war.
Please finish reading Chapter 12 tonight. I will be giving a reading quiz on Chapter 11 and 12 tomorrow at the start of class.

Some historians see 4 phases, and some see five. |

How would you adapt a sketchnote on the topic? |
