Description
This DBQ argues for and against using the atomic bomb against Japan during World War II through 6 primary source documents with constructed response questions followed by an essay question using all the documents.
The DBQ has a total possible 7 points and has an answer key plus additional ideas for student discussion.
If you want this DBQ, you can make it as part of my Build a Bundle - 3 DBQs for $9. Spend just $5.00 more and get 2 more DBQs!
I created this DBQ for my Global History IV course, and could be used for a U.S. History II course and as a review for the New York State Global History and Geography Regents and U.S. History and Government Regents exams. It does take considerable time to create these but I do know that they provide a strong outlet to apply the particular lesson involved. I hope you find them useful as well! Please leave feedback on your students’ ability to complete the tasks involved in this DBQ.
SAVE MONEY! This DBQ is included in my Document Based Question Pack: The Cold War.
