Create Your Own World History Yearbook **

Directions: **

The project below was completed using **[|Mixbook.com].** Please examine its format and contents as you will be completing a Mixbook for the year I will assign to you. This project involves __**World History**__, so it is important to find those __significant__ historical events and pictures/images/maps that relate to other countries throughout the world.

media type="custom" key="963889" **Click __View__ to go to Mixbook and examine the book at a your own pace**.

If you are including a sports event, it must be a sport that is played throughout the world (Tennis, Soccer, etc) or has some political significance. 1980 was an Olympic year, so I felt compelled to include those events in the book, additionally the Summer Olympics were boycotted by a number of nations.
