First and foremost, I asked you to read a letter from FDR to Hitler yesterday (open that up). Let's talk about this:
 * What We Did In Class**
 * 1) What was going on in Europe at the time this was written?
 * 2) Why is FDR sending this letter?
 * 3) What is FDR stating/asking/requesting in the letter? What's the letter's purpose/function?
 * 4) What's one thing you'd like to share about it?

Now, let's figure out what America was doing in 1930, 1940, and 1941...
 * Fireside Chat 14: On the European War (September 3, 1939)
 * Fireside Chat 15: On National Defense (May 26, 1940)
 * "Stab in the Back" Speech (June 10, 1940) - Really start paying attention about halfway through...
 * Fireside Chat 16: On the "Arsenal of Democracy" (December 29, 1940)

Listen to audio recording while following along and reading the transcript. Record what you think are the main points worth sharing.

Small group conversation about what you heard from President Roosevelt.
