Overview of Project
As part of the Africa unit we will be learning about the Genocide that occurred in Rwanda. Genocide is defined as the deliberate killing of a large group of people, especially those of a particular ethnic group or nation. As part of the learning process we will be watching the video Sometimes in April, but before we do we need to understand the conflict. To prepare for the video students will be completing this webquest and having class discussions over the material. By the end of the webquest/discussion you need to know who are the victims and why. In addition, what role did past governments play in starting the genocide.
If you do not complete this webquest you will not watch the video. If you or you parents feel uncomfortable with you watching the video please let your social studies teacher know so an alternative project can be arranged.
