Description

This concise, consumable resource provides students of the First World War with exposure to the primary causes of the conflict, and the struggle for neutrality that raged in the U. S. and elsewhere. Readers also learn about the daily life of soldiers on the Western Front who were engaged in trench warfare, as well as issues related to the role of propaganda. The final lessons include important details regarding the political effects of the Treaty of Versailles that ended the Great War. Each of the twenty-one lessons focuses on some important military or political aspect of the war, and provides students with online research assignments and targeted questions that help give them a greater understanding of the issues. Students also gain significant exposure to primary source material, such as treaties and original letters from soldiers, while they learn how to interpret relevant maps and graphs. Answer key and basic teaching recommendations are included. 42 pgs, pb. ~ Mike
