Now that you’ve completed at least the first part of your choice novel, I want you to consider which characters or people (real or fictional) are to blame for the effects of war on your novel. First, brainstorm the various people and groups who played a role in the genocide, battles, decision making of WWII.
It is very easy for us to just blame Hitler….. but don’t forget he needed a lot of help!! Consider people, ideologies, institutions, etc. What things caused the outcome?? What things might have prevented uprising or overthrow? Start by thinking about cause and effect……and definitely think outside the box!!
YOUR BLOG MUST INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING:
1. A “division” of responsibility….. A minimum of FIVE things/people/characters to blame. start with 100% and break it down from there where you feel appropriate. If you can insert some sort of bar graph or pie chart for a visual, this is highly encouraged! (You can do it however you'd like, but see below to see how your "super tech-savvy" teacher did it!)
2. A short explanation for each division of culpability… i.e. why Hitler? Or the Jewish faith itself? Or the invention of the A-bomb? Explain away!
3. An image of one of your “divisions” --- Yahweh (if you can), propaganda, synagogues, weaponry...etc.
4. A comment on a peer’s blog! ☺
_________________________________________________
To insert a graph using Microsoft Word (like the one below)….
1. Go to “Insert” at the top, and then go to “object”.
2. Double-click on “Microsoft Graph Chart”
3. A default bar graph will show up…. Double click it to edit.
4. At the top, click the “chart type” icon… (I chose the circle graph!)
5. At the top (horizontal level), type in the names of who you are going to give culpability to.
6. Beneath each label, type the percentage and it will automatically adjust your chart
7. When you are finished, click “save as” and save it as .png or .jpeg.
8. Upload on blogger.com as you would a regular image!
