How imperialist did the US seem to people from other countries? • You will get to be the teacher and use my scoring guide format to grade the US on its degress of imperialism from the point of view of the countries affected. • Go through proficient first and check the items. • If all proficient criteria are checked, then go up to see if we meet any of the exemplary qualities. If it does, then circle exemplary. • If not all proficient criteria are checked then circle either “Basic” or “Below Basic” depending on how many criteria were missing. • The higher the US scores the more imperialist it was. • Hopefully this will also give you a better sense of how my scoring guide works!

From the U.S. perspective, intervention in (location) was like (first metaphor). From the perspective of (location), U.S. intervention was like (second metaphor).

From the perspective of Cuba, U.S. intervention was like a bully on a playground because . . . the U.S. set up a military government in Cuba (though it had been granted independence after the Spanish-American War) and denied Cubans self-rule, just as a bully tries to control and intimidate other children on the playground.
