Brenda Speir's curator insight, June 30, 2020 11:25 AM
The National World War II Museum website has a plethora of excellent resources for teachers and students.  All content is free.  For teachers it includes lessons, a World War II Flipgrid library, webinars, virtual field trips, and a Get the Scraps project for kids to take part in.

Suggested use: This is a great starting off point when beginning to look for resources to teach World War II history.  There are many interactive elements and projects that would make the unit engaging and fun for students.

Infographic World War I 1914-1918 Borders, state leaders and military alliances In 1914, the long-established world order began to crack apart, the 19th century system came to an end, and humankind entered a new age of unprecedentedly brutal conflicts in terms of their scale, the number of casualties and destruction. Russia entered this war as an empire with a huge economic potential, expanding industrial production and confidence in its political influence. But Russia lost the war,the Tsar abdicated, the economy was ruined, and the fire of a Civil War swept through the country. After losing four extremely influential empires, the European and global political mosaic reassembled into a new and extremely fragile world order, which inevitably led to World War II. en.ria.ru
