Storyboard Task TASK: You need to know the events of the Crisis, so we are going to get some key points for the book and create a storyboard (computer) to show it. This is chance for you to be creative and create something ‘fun’ to revise from! I have put a storyboard template of boxes/captions online to use. P105:  Why did the Cuban missile Crisis occur? – 3 boxes.  The Missile Crisis develops, October 1962 – 2 boxes.  Why was Kennedy determined to stand firm? – 2boxes.  What were Kennedy's options? – 2 boxes.  Kennedy’s actions – 3 boxes. How much of a close shave do you think it was?
