Wednesday and Thursday, October 26 & 27

Hello, history students!

Today we'll be delving further into the League of Nations. Our focus will be on understanding the structure of the League of Nations and how its organization made it weak. We will also focus on evaluating the successes and failures of the League of Nations through a series of short case studies in the 1920s.


For your Do Now, please click here. If you do not have an iPad, please take out a sheet of paper. 

Tell me two facts you have learned about the League of Nations. Also tell me one thing that still confuses you about the League of Nations.

To help clarify and reinforce what we have been learning about the League of Nations, we will watch a short documentary about Woodrow Wilson and the League of Nations. Please have your notes out; add any information to your notes that helps your clarify and understand the League of Nations better.


We will briefly look at the structure of the League of Nations and why that created issues for its success.

Finally, we will look at individual cases that the League of Nations handled during the 1920s. As a class we will determine whether or not these were successes or failures.

Your homework for tonight (due Friday or Monday) is to complete the League of Nations Success and Failures in the 1920s sheet.

Here are the pages from the textbook needed to complete your homework.



Remember the rough draft of your Peace Treaties essay is due November 1 or 2. We will briefly go over the structure your essay needs to be in, as well as the APA formatting for your sources.
