			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: left;">WWI has been richly covered and lots of wonderful projects sit in our notebooks to prove it.  The <a href="http://www.schoolhistory.co.uk/year9links/wwi_sheets.shtml" target="_blank">School History</a> site was invaluable for me during this unit!!  You can see some of the activities we chose to use from School History below.</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">This map shows the allies at the beginning of the war.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i931.photobucket.com/albums/ad160/cindykwest2/IMG_6477.jpg" alt="" width="320" height="240" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This is a diagram of trench warfare.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i931.photobucket.com/albums/ad160/cindykwest2/IMG_6478.jpg" alt="" width="320" height="240" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">This is a chart of several important points of the war.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" src="http://i931.photobucket.com/albums/ad160/cindykwest2/IMG_6479.jpg" alt="" width="320" height="240" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">And this is a map of the new Europe established after the end of the war.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;">I bought the game A Journey Through Europe for $1.00 at a curriculum sale last summer.  It was a great was to reinforce important places in Europe.  I haven&#8217;t linked it because I don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s available anymore, but it would be a good one to keep in the back of your mind as you visit curriculum and yard sales.</p>

<p>Below are the resources that have been in my sidebar.  I hope you find them useful!</p>
<p><strong>World War I</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m kind of bummed that our library has such a limited selection of age-appropriate WWI books.  These books and DVD&#8217;s  got us pretty far, though.</p>
