Presentation on War

Instructions:

- Give a 10 minute presentation on a war from the list of wars below.

- You will give an overview of what caused the war, major events in the war, advances in
technology during the war, and what was the significance of this war.
- Lastly, your presentation should have something interesting, like a fun fact or a piece of
knowledge that is not well known.

You can work in groups of up to three on presentations.

Slides cannot have more than 2 sentences. That is because I want you to explain in your
own words what is happening on the slides and not read back to me what you put there.
Sometimes, learning and absorbing knowledge takes time.
