Students have been working on a debate in history class on if the US should have used the Atomic bomb during WWII.  They will be debating against classmates on their sides starting on Monday.  Students have been working all week researching and creating their debate.  Below are some resources so students may work on the project at home over the weekend to create the best debate possible.
