Cold War Chronology

Today's Learning Target:

I can identify and graphically organize the major events of the Cold War spanning the time period from 1945 through 1991

Today's Learning Activities:
  • Use the internet to research at least three different chronologies of the Cold War. Compare them and look for any differences and see if you can reason why they exist.
  • Using an online graphic timeline creator, such as Dipity, create your own timeline of the major events, conflicts and turning points of the Cold War.  Each event should include a cited graphic and mini-description.
  • Embed your timeline into your student reflective blog.  Here is an example of what a Dipity timeline looks like:
