  1. Welcome to the very first video on unit six, the rise of american power.
  2. We have completed the gilded age.
  3. That was unit five and we are moving on to unit six which is awesome.
  4. Excellent, Good us, good for us. Oh goodness.
  5. Okay so for us to do this, we're gonna do three stages for today.
  6. We're gonna have to do now.
  7. Um and then a mini lesson, we're going to analyze a bunch of images,
  8. try to predict what's going to happen in unit six, build some intrigue,
  9. things like that.
  10. And then we're gonna close the self assessment so it's not going
  11. to be too complicated but this is what we're doing today.
  12. So
  13. here we go
  14. for the do now. We're going to go over the answers from yesterday's assignment.
  15. Um I'm not going to post this here because I want to make
  16. sure that people are doing the assignment before they watch the video.
  17. So um if you're in class great, we'll go over together.
  18. If not submit your work on google classroom and I
  19. will be sure to give you feedback on your work.
  20. Okay, so next let's get into the mini lessons.
  21. So for this many lessons we're gonna do is we're going to go through four
  22. different images and try to break down what we think is happening in there.
  23. So in each of these images,
  24. normally I would have a whole discussion with you in the class about it.
  25. But since there is a video component,
  26. I'm just going to break down the key things I want
  27. you to notice in these images before we get started.
  28. Okay, so here's image number one.
  29. Now,
  30. the first thing I want you to notice is that
  31. all of the people in this image are black people.
  32. So we see that there's there's something to do with
  33. black people in this unit that we're gonna be covering.
  34. Okay, we also notice that they seem to be traveling somewhere. Right?
  35. So there's some kind of movement happening in this unit and they're going
  36. to specifically Chicago new york and ST louis ST louis is in Missouri,
  37. so they're heading north, Right?
  38. So there's some kind of migration happening with african americans in
  39. this unit specifically.
  40. Okay, great,
  41. let's move on to the next image.
  42. Now, this is a little bit different.
  43. We see that there's a woman, so there's something to do with woman power.
  44. She's lighting her hat, which says world power on it and it says expansion up top,
  45. right?
  46. Um, and her hat kind of looks like a battleship. Right?
  47. So it looks like she's heading out to
  48. battle and there's something to do with american power
  49. going out and expanding across the world.
  50. So maybe something to do with colonizing over here. Right?
  51. We see that her, her actual dress also looks like a battle suit.
  52. Also, we're noticing that this is a woman, not a man in this outfit over here.
  53. So there's something to do with women
  54. power expansion colonizing going on over here.
  55. We also noticed that there's she's looking into a mirror and
  56. there's a lot of beauty products going on over there.
  57. So maybe there's something happening with that.
  58. Okay, moving forward into the third image. So over here, this is our third image.
  59. Okay,
  60. now, clearly there's some kind of battle happening over here.
  61. So we know so far that in this unit
  62. there's some kind of migration happening with african americans,
  63. some type of expansion across the world.
  64. And over here we have some kind of battle. So it looks like a really, really
  65. destructive grisly battle
  66. in this unit.
  67. This image is actually an image of World War One and we're
  68. gonna be breaking down specifically trench warfare in World War One.
  69. So these people are actually fighting with entrenched and you'll
  70. notice that there's dead bodies all over the place,
  71. black and white.
  72. Um, there's only one soldier looks like left alive.
  73. Um, so we're gonna be getting a lot into World War One in this unit.
  74. Okay,
  75. the last and final image that we're gonna be tackling over here
  76. is this image over here.
  77. In this image we see over here, uh, there are a bunch of different nations over here,
  78. as you can see there's Russia,
  79. Japan china England America all trying to get their knife into a stake of the pie,
  80. right, this is a pie over here with china.
  81. So there's something to do with china and imperialism over here.
  82. This is just some of the ideas that we're gonna be covering
  83. in this unit
  84. we're gonna do.
  85. Now is I'm gonna have you complete the self assessment for
  86. today on google classroom I know is a shorter lesson.
  87. If you're watching this online um in class we're gonna be diving a little bit deeper,
  88. so if you can be sure to get to class,
  89. this video should just be used as more like a review for the lesson.
  90. Um With that, I hope you have an excellent day and I will see you all tomorrow.
