Cold War




 * War between America and the Soviet Union.
 * The Red Scare
 * Involved Korea
 * Communism vs Capitalism

They do things differently than each other. Butter on top and butter on the bottom. They eat their butter different. They Zooks had better weapons then the yooks, so now the yooks are trying to get a better weapon. So it is like a weapons race for the better weapon. They were also trying to be better than one another so they would keep doing more things. Also what ever the Yooks did, the Zooks countered. It got worse because the Zooks broke the weapon of the grandpa Yook. I don't think that I do this with my siblings or my friends, we all get along and don't fight that much. But in general, it would happen if there is a disagreement. When you don't agree with your sibling or friends. Just accept the differences between each other because that is what makes different countries unique in their own way, not every country should be the same.
 * a. Why do you think the Zooks and Yooks did not get along? **
 * b. What do you think caused this conflict to get worse? **
 * c. How do you think this happens with your friends or siblings? **
 * d. What do you think the Zooks and Yooks could have done differently to prevent this conflict? **
 * e. In the story, each side uses propaganda to make their side seem like the right side. Give some examples from the movie/book. **

There was an increase in the making of weapons, so there was a weapon race between the 2 countries. One country would always counter the other, so bigger and stronger weapons would be produced, leading to the creation of the Nuclear weapon. Neither of them would drop the bomb. They would create peace with each other through communication because they do not want their people or their country destroyed completely.
 * f. What does the story tell you about the Cold War? **
 * g. What would be your ending to the story? **

Content Questions :


 * How did the Korean War turn into a Cold War Conflict?** Both leaders wanted the other side to become either communist or capitalist rule. The South Koreans got support from the Americans.

Why did the Korean War not lead to world war? Truman told the American military not to go too far and pick fights that were not needed. There was an armistice that was signed, so they would stop fighting.

How does the Korean War shed light on the broad themes of the Cold War? They had used treaties to stop things. It was a difference between communism and capitalism [|Korean War Overview guide sheet on video]


 * Opener: Based on Korean War Video: **
 * **Do you Believe the Korean War was a Civil War or a Proxy War ( war that results when opposing powers use third parties as substitutes for fighting each other directly.)?**
 * I think that the Korean War was a Civil War because it was a fight between North Korean and South Korea, with only help from other countries.** Proxy war because it was a way that the US and the Soviets were fighting without actually engaging.
 * **Provide three pieces of evidence from the video to support your claim**
 * **The North Koreans invade South Korea.**
 * The North Koreans capture almost all of the South Korean land.
 * They signed a Armistice to stop fighting between the North and the South.
 * Sides were backed by communist and capitalist countries.
 * North Korea takes alot of resources.
 * North Korea wants all of Korea to be under communist rule.
 * Proxy because China sent troops to assist.
 * **Pair/share responses and make rev****isions in red**


 * 1.Pose A question**
 * Is it talking about the spread of communism in Korea?
 * is it the spread of communism as a whole or just Korea?
 * 2.Gather clues (what do you see/)**
 * I see aliens looking at Earth
 * I see Korea
 * I see the words Redder 'n' Redder
 * I see a question mark in the corner
 * I see an angry sun
 * a man that is confused (Truman?)
 * 3.Draw a conclusion**
 * This Cartoon is talking about the korean war and how the North Koreans looked like they were winning because they are saying that it is getting redder. So that means that communism is spreading or that there were alot of people dying and it was the soldiers blood that they were seeing.
 * Talking abuot what was going on in korea and how communism is spreading, this was probably before the amphibious landing in inchon.

[|Google Doc On The Korean War Mark Up] [|So What Paragraph on The Korean War] [|Questions on Summary of The Korean War] **1.) Confidence in President.** I think that the confidence in the president is the most important because, the president is in control of the entire country, so if you have the confidence in him, he will make the country safe.   **2.) Should U.S. take strong steps?**   I think that this is second because there are 2 things that could happen if they do try strong steps. One is that it will be successful and the U.S will get something out of it and the other thing that could happen is that it could go wrong and it would make the U.S lose something. ** 3.) Truce along present line ** I think this because i do think that the truce was a good idea, while some people think that it was a failure for the U.S i think that it was good because it ended the fighting. =__**Cuban Missile Crisis**__= __**[|Cuban Missile Crisis Notes]**__

I think that 2nd idea about negotiating is the best idea because it is a way of compromise without it turning into a war. Even though many of the people in the meeting was saying that we should take action and bomb them, I think that negotiating is the best way to solve a problem.
