Introduction of the Sub-topic: The role of animals during WWIIWe have spent the last two weeks speaking about the wonderful work of the people who fought for their countries and the heroic stories behind the war but today, we will speak about the queit heroes and their role in the war- the animals.
Pedagogy The children will be asked in groups to come up with animals which they believe may have had a role in the war and why. They will then be asked to share this with the group and we will create a brainstorm on the board as shown in the image across ----> The children will then be asked to watch the short clip on EdPuzzle of an American news broadcaster revealing some of the honoured WWII animals. |

Resource: Prezi
The aim of this resource is to shed light on the roles of the various animals in World War II and bring to the forefront their heroic acts. Sounds effects set the mood and the imagery will assist those of multiple intelligences. Discussions will be stimulated by the short extracts of information on the Prezi to provoke thinking. This Prezi will not be used in order to lecture children but to stimulate their own thinking on the subject. This resource was made and not taken from another source. |
