Monday 4/27 & Tuesday 4/28:
You will be exploring an interactive documentary - Titled "The Fallen of WWII" that examines the human cost of the second World War and the decline in battle deaths in the years since the war. There is 2 copies I have attached: The Interactive version is recommended as you can pause and scroll through it to answer the questions, and complete the corresponding worksheet posted below. It asks for a donation, but it can be watched without paying at all. The YouTube version of it will be attached as well. This is an extremely eye-opening look at the human cost of war through history to recent times. It was produced in 2015 keep that in mind as you watch. Share this one with your family!
