Today we watched a TedEd video about the Cuban missile crisis and answered comprehension questions afterwards. We discussed the containment of communism terms used in the telling of this history. We revisited the timeline - the failure of the Bay of Pigs invasion, the blockade, and the supplying of missiles by the U.S.S.R to Cuba. We next looked to History.com and a video about the civil rights movement and the march on Washington. We discussed the timeline of historical events.
