Stories from WWI

Agenda 12/16:

  1. I showed students pictures from a trip I'd taken to the Balkans.
  2. Students reviewed the WWI documents from the previous lesson.
  3. Students listened to an interview with author Adam Hochschild regarding his new book about WWI. They then viewed a series of photographs from the war. Finally, they listened an excerpt (start at 55:00) about a Christmas truce between British and German troops. Students took notes and drew on this worksheet while they viewed and listened to the presentations.
  4. To end, they played a review game about WWI.
