 * As the Bell Rings...** media type="custom" key="18831216"

Work with someone you like to create a timeline of U.S. involvement in Vietnam from the Truman administration through the Ford administration. The timelines should start with Truman's decision to provide financial support to the French and end with the evacuation of Americans and South Vietnamese from Saigon in 1975.
 * What We Did In Class**

You can create this as a wiki page, a Keynote, a Google Document or Presentation, or on a poster. Poster paper can be found in the large drawer in the cabinet. Please help yourself, but keep it neat. This is the last in-class day to work on this timeline.

Use Infoplease as a resource here.

If your timeline has less than 10 events on it, you're a failure. If it has more than 30, you're an overachiever. If it has 20, you're awesome. If it has 15, you're pretty good.

Finish your timeline.
