Many historians theorize that the Cold War began with the Yalta Conference. By studying the historical events from 1945 – 1950, your team will make your own conclusions in this historical debate. Your ultimate goal; however, is to ask a question to be answered by your peers. By this time in the school year, you have answered many data based questions. Now is your opportunity to write your own DBQ that your peers will answer. The following steps will be involved in this process:


 * Each day, during class, you will research the major events from 1945 – 1950.
 * After your day’s research, go to the discussion tab on the Home page  to enter your thoughts and findings from the day, ask questions of your peers, and collaborate with data that may help others.
 * Through this process, you will develop a question and gather documents, pictures and political cartoons to be used in your DBQ.
 * Write and compile your DBQ

Take yourself back; live in the moment of history that led to decades of fear and weaponry. Investigate, analyze, and create...your time machine waits!
