Image result for iwo jima
This is your LAST vocabulary list of the course!!! When we return from Christmas Break we will be in full blown review mode, so there will be no more vocabulary!!!

This week, you will only have eight words to actually complete, but you will have a cumulative vocabulary assessment on Friday from Weeks 14-16.  You have done great on these words, so this should be easy.  I have included the Quizlet for all the words below so you can study this week.  This week's words are all over the place, but they address the end of WWII and a few words we missed along the way.

Be sure to write the definition, a sentence, and draw a picture for each word.
