You will be using Microsoft Word to create a timeline that includes the major events of World War Two. You can be creative about how you make your timeline, but it must include all of the items listed below.
Place each of these items in correct order on your timeline. For each of the events, you must include:
- The name of the event
- The date of the event
- A description AND the significance of the event ("significance" = why was it important?)
- An image that represents the event (for most of the events, you should be able to find photos of the actual event using the "image search" feature on www.bing.com)
List of Events:
- Lend-Lease Act
- Bombing of Pearl Harbor
- Japanese Surrender / V-J Day
- A. Philip Randolph's Proposed March on Washington D.C.
- The Manhattan Project
