Submission Required
Students rotate through stations with reproduced WWI letters, propaganda posters, casualty lists, photographs, and a short government speech excerpt, annotating what each source suggests about effects on soldiers and civilians. They record observations, questions, and possible leadership decisions connected to each source in an inquiry notebook. The class closes by surfacing patterns and tensions they notice across source types.
