  8. Your new Global class…play along! Bob is a friend of Frank. Frank and Rick are good friends and have agreed that if either is ever in a fight, the other boy will come to the rescue. Most of the boys in the class have obtained weapons in case of a fight. Greg, Ira and Alan are also good friends and have an agreement to fight if one is attacked. Frank and Greg hate each other because Greg beat up Frank a few years ago. Greg is jealous of Bob because Bob is a better swimmer on the school team. Sam and Rick are good friends as their backgrounds are similar, and Alan is always picking on Sam. Rick will protect Sam from Alan. Barney is small in size and gets picked on; he has convinced Bob to help him if he is ever attacked. All the boys love Cathy; each one thinks he is best and deserves her. What will your class “feel” like? Your thoughts?

  9. Do Now: What is an alliance? Why do people form them? How do people select who they want to make an alliance with? Why could alliances be dangerous?

Austria Responds “Demands must be put to Serbia that would be wholly impossible for them to accept.” Germany Responds “Blank Check” Count Berchtold (Austrian PM) Hollweg (German PM) “His Majesty desires to say that he is not blind to the danger which threatens Austria-Hungary and thus the Triple Alliance . The Emperor Francis Joseph (AH) may be rest assured that His Majesty will faithfully stand by Austria-Hungary, as is required by the obligations of his alliance and of his ancient friendship.”

  30. Napoleon Crossing the Alps By Jacques-Louis David (1800)

  31. Rupert Brooke ~ “The Soldier” If I should die, think only this of me: That there's some corner of a foreign field That is forever England. There shall be In that rich earth a richer dust concealed; A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware, Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam, A body of England's, breathing English air, Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home. And think, this heart, all evil shed away, A pulse in the eternal mind, no less Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given; Her sights and sounds; dreams happy as her day; And laughter, learnt of friends; and gentleness, In hearts at peace, under an English heaven.
