This allows students to collaborate to discuss and come to a conclusion on the answer. Students will not be left on their own but will have the opportunity to learn from their classmates.

Are you tired of the repetitive worksheets and workbooks that promise to teach your students how to read absolute location (latitude and longitude)? Try out the Battleship: Latitude & Longitude game. This introductory lesson involves a game that will not only encourage students to learn how to read coordinates, but they will have a blast doing it as they sink ships for points. I have used this activity in my 7th-grade geography, class but this activity is great for all learning levels. Please note, this is a class activity that the entire class will play together.

Students will work in cooperative teams (class is split into team 1 and team 2) and will work cooperatively within the teams to identify the location of ships throughout the world, using the deduction method.

Students will walk away from this lesson having a better understanding of how to accurately read latitude and longitude.

Teachers, feel free to modify this lesson to meet your students' needs.

Note: This will come in a zip file. Please print all three files. I am not clear on why it created 3 files instead of one, but all components needed are included within one of the three files.

Following World War I, Germany was in economic, political, and physical ruins. In 1933, Adolf Hitler became Chancellor and began his quiet quest against anyone who was not Arian. In 1931, Germany was given the option of hosting the 1936 Olympics. Hilter, under his Nazi German totalitarian dictatorship government system, wasn't sure it was a good idea until he was convinced that they could build the largest stadium to be seen at the Olympics and make Germany look as if it was not in ruin. He agreed! The 1936 Olympics were different from the Olympics in the past. It incorporated theatre, high-tech equipment for the games, and wonderful production with a lot of rituals that would continue into the Olympic games after Hitler's Olympics.

Hitler kept the secret of his war against the Jews throughout the two weeks of the 1936 Olympics using propaganda to show the world how well Germany was doing; the world, however, had no idea whatwas in store for Germany and the Jews who lived within its borders.

OBJECTIVES:

• Students will understand the concept of propaganda and how it was used during the Olympics in 1936 by the Nazi regime. (Bloom’s Taxonomy: Understand)
• Students will understand the events that led up to the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. (Bloom’s: Understand)
• Students will recognize the governmental workings to boycott Jews from the Olympics. (Bloom’s: Understand)
• Students will investigate, identify, and present today’s propaganda techniques throughout the world in Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, and South America. (Bloom’s: Understand and Create)
• Students will critique and defend their work as propaganda. (Bloom’s: Evaluate)
• Students will judge whether they agree with statements using the Before & After technique. (Blooms: Evaluate)

INCLUDES

• Lesson Teaser/Bump: Hitler’s Olympics PowerPoint
• Dice: One Per Group
• Article: History Behind Hitler’s Olympics (Student Group Reading Activity)

Students will have fun with this high-level, fun thinking activity. This lesson is a wonderful introduction activity. This will encourage students to explore the characteristics that define a nation: economics, culture, government, religion, etc.

This is best used as a beginning-of-the-year activity to understand the concept of what a nation is.
