This secondary school resource will take students through the reversal of Japanese fortunes with the huge carrier battles and successful Allied island hoping campaign.
Students will watch the carrier action unfold in a 19 min section of World War II in colour to get an in depth and entertaining overview of events (they will have questions to answer whilst doing so).
The main task is teacher led whereby you go through the key details of two carrier battles. This is a continuation of the previous lesson (adding to their mindmap). You may then choose to show another segment of the island hopping campaign from WW2 in colour before completing those strands of the mindmap. This lesson will complete the second of three branches on the mind map, with the subsequent lesson seeing it through to completion.
They will finish by describing two key features of the war in the Pacific.
This is the first lesson in a 3 lesson series focusing on the war in the Pacific.
ATTENTION - You will need access to Netflix or World War 2 in colour to make full use of this resource.
