I have tried to be as balanced as possible, though I understand that some may question this.<br /> <br /> Apologies for any stolen parts.

Lesson that examines the ways in which we remember World War One. First you give them an understanding of different types of commemoration, then allow them to create their own. <br /> There are a fair few activities, so it is up to you what you prioritise - I tend to do this based on class ability.
