1. Bell Ringer!!! Take out your WWI statistics handouts from yesterday. What does our acronym “MAIN” stand for? What countries are in the Triple Alliance? What countries are in the Triple Entente?

2. New Weapons & Strategies of War Objective: Analyze the role of new technologies and practices including the use of poison gas, trench warfare, machine guns, airplanes, submarines, and tanks.

4. Machine Guns Shoot 400-600 Bullets per minute Very large and heavy Could not be moved easily

6. Tanks Developed as a method to get over “No Man’s Land” They were unsuccessful during World War One

8. Poison Gas Very harsh weapon during this time 3 different kinds Mustard Chlorine Tear

10. Airplanes Multiple uses – Spy, Bomb, Deliver, Transport, etc… Were not made very well at the time Overall unsuccessful in World War One

12. Artillery Field Guns Long Range weapon – Responsible for most deaths during the war. Extremely large

14. Submarines Underwater advantage!! Very popular for the Germans Also used torpedoes and top side guns

16. What can you prove?.... In your opinion, decide whether you believe the use of poison gas was justified during World War I (Was it right to use it?). How convincing can you be???????
