History
Momčilo Gavrić - The youngest soldier in WWI
Momčilo Gavrić - The youngest soldier in WWI from Serbia at the age of 8.
Please note - the preview shows the file in a weird format. The real file isn’t like this!
This is basically a biography of Momčilo Gavrić.
It’s been taken from different sources, edited and I’ve created some comprehension questions and added some pictures.
His story is very interesting!

Adolf Hitler Biography Comprehension (B2/B2+)
Here you have the biography of Adolf Hitler.
UPDATE: I decided to make this longer and part of my WW1 lessons, just after the Great Depression, so it would be better to download that one. It’s longer but better I think.

Why the Berlin Wall rose and fell
This text is taken from the National Geographic then I modified certain parts and added a little extra. I also got some images from google to make it look nicer.
It was primarily designed for non-native speakers (B2 level) as there are some definitions of difficult words added (carve, brain drain, plot, stunned etc) but it could easily be used for native speakers.
There are comprehension questions added as well.

Here is a collection of lessons on WW2. Please note, it’s been recently modified. I decided to scrap some of the Powerpoints so most of it is in the booklet. But I have kept the old powerpoints just in case you prefer them.
Lesson order:
1 Introduction to WW2 (Powerpoint)
2 Origins of WW2 (How Britain Hoped to Avoid War with Germany in the 1930s) (Word document)
3 Rationing (Powerpoint)
4 The Battle of Britain & The Blitz (Word document)
5 Operation Barbarossa (Word document)
I used to have the Hitler biography here at the start of WW2 but decided to put it at the end of WW1 after the Great Depression.
There is a separate booklet for questions.
My students are French and we have a special history class, so the question booklet has translations of advanced words.
Anne Frank Diary
Hi
I have edited the Anne Frank diary for a B1 level. As far as I understand the copyright has expired, so I’m uploading this.
I created it all myself and it’s taken hours with the vocab and comprehension questions and background information.
I have also created three texts based on things Anne mentions in the diary: Churchill, Gandhi and Queen Wilhelmina and taken the reconstruction of their arrest from the Anne Frank website (it’s been edited a bit, with images added etc.).
