History 12-1: 1914 Map of Europe/Wilson's 14 Points (Day 1)

We then began our reading of Exercise Three from the Falk workbook.  I reviewed some strategies for doing close readings of  "dense" passages.  Get those pointer fingers out and don't forget to "mumble read" aloud.  I "translated" the preamble and asked you to read the remainder (including completing the questions) for homework.
