A great classroom display and sorting activity that is perfect for introducing students to the key events of World War 1. There are 30 posters or task cards that include many of the key events from the First World War.
The posters look great as a display in the classroom and the cards are a brilliant introduction to World War I. The displays and cards come both with dates and without dates, so the students can research the dates online before sorting the timeline. The cards look even better when laminated.
