WW2 Key Events Card Sort

A card sort of the key events of WW2.
Recommended for KS3.

Each card summarises a key event of the war with an image and statistics, and can be used to get students to think critically about the significance and scale of each event.

Example use: Students a) put the events in chronological order. b) create two categories: eg. positive/ negative for the Allies. c) place in order of scale of impact on the course of the war. d) Identify the three “most significant” events of the war. - Each time, the students must justify their movement of the cards.
