WW1 L18 - Why Did Germany Lose WW1

This lesson contains:

• A starter to recap trench warfare.
• A background of the armistace and what it means and a YouTube video to show how the war ended.
• An exercise to study a series of cards, in groups, with information about the reasons why the war was lost by Germany. Students make notes about why each led to a loss in the war.
• A task to then complete a graph to decide the most important events and to colour code them by category. Students then put the categories into a pie chart to sort the reasons.
• A final task to connect the reasons, showing deeper analysis of the reasons.
• A plenary to discuss the ways we commemorate the War and whether we do enough.
