This assessment gauges whether students can identify the historical event depicted in an iconic photograph and evaluate its historical significance. Successful students will draw on their knowledge of the past to identify Nick Ut’s Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph of children burned by South Vietnamese forces’ napalm bombs and then explain how the photograph was historically significant.
Note: This assessment features an image that may not be appropriate for all students. Please review the assessment before class to determine if it is appropriate for your students.
