World War II Battles

Amber Llewellyn
Amber Llewellyn over 1 year ago

My students love to talk about battles, and that is an area that I feel the least confident talking about. While I understand strategy and tactics, I am far from an expert in these areas, and I do not know an American Tank from a Soviet Tank when shown pictures, which makes some of my students very disappointed in me. So my question is, how do you teach about the battles of World War II? Do you go into details or talk about what was important and how many people died?

    Speaking of the WWII museum I love using the See You Next Year yearbook collection they have.  They highlight the ways the war impacted American High Schools.  Its a fun lesson.

    Thanks for sharing this resource, Eric Schulz ! Do you have students do the accompanying activity from the WWII museum or something you've created?

     Eric Schulz I like this resource! It gives our students a different perspective about the war and its impact on society. Anne Koschmider as I read your question I was thinking using this resource for Veterans Day. Eric Schulz do you have a lesson plan?
