In the front portion of this unit you will find: How to use this unit List of 168 World War I battles and engagements in no specific order Maps for areas where one or more major engagements occurred Notebooking page templates for your children to use In the second portion of the unit, you will find a list of the battles by year to help you customize the unit to fit your family’s needs. How to Use There are countless ways you can customize and build upon this unit. Here are a few ideas: Decide what battles you want your student to explore. You may decide to have them learn about all 168 battles included in the book, all the battles in a certain year, etc. You’ll find lists of the battles by year in the second portion of the unit. Have your student record the leaders of the Allied Powers, leaders of the Central Powers, date, location, and outcome of each battle on the notebooking pages as well as any information they find interesting or helpful. If you have your student research all the battles included, determine ahead of time how you will have him organize his findings in his finished notebook and have him place that information at the top of each page. For example, if his notebook will be arranged chronologically, have him place the date on the first line. If it will be arranged by leader, have him place those names at the top. You can also have your student map the location of each battle on the maps included. As your student researches, he may find additional battles to add to this list. The list is not exhaustive. Whatever direction you and your student go with this unit, I pray that it will help you both gain a better understanding of this key period of history. *You may note some differences between the dates listed in this unit and the dates on some websites. This is mostly due to the fact that some accounts record the date the battle began as when the troops moved in, some use the date when the fighting began, etc . Similarly, some record the end of the battle as when the fighting stopped, when the troops withdrew, etc . Another fact that has an effect on the dates for battles is that some were fought across the International Date Line, so it depends upon which side you use to determine the day the battle started or ended. You will also find that some battles are part of larger battles, which not only explains the differences in dates, but also the fact that you may have trouble finding some of the battles listed individually. ©Bonnie Rose Hudson WriteBonnieRose.com 1 World War I Battles—Student List Armistice signed by Austria-Hungary Armistice signed by Bulgaria Armistice signed by Germany Armistice signed by Ottoman Empire Attacks on High Wood Battle of Albert Battle of Albert (1918) Battle of Amiens Battle of Arleux Battle of Armentieres Battle of Arras Battle of Aubers Ridge Battle of Bailleul Battle of Bazentin Ridge Battle of Beauvrevoir Line Battle of Beersheba Battle of Bellewaarde Ridge Battle of Bethune Battle of Bita Paka Battle of Broodseinde Battle of Cambrai Battle of Canal du Nord Battle of Cantigny Battle of Caporetto Battle of Cer Battle of Charleroi Battle of Cocos Battle of Coronel Battle of Courtrai Battle of Ctesiphon Battle of Delville Wood Battle of Dogger Bank Battle of Dujaila Battle of Epehy Battle of Estaires Battle of Festubert Battle of Flers-Curcelette Battle of Frezenberg Ridge Battle of Fromelles Battle of Gheluvelt ©Bonnie Rose Hudson WriteBonnieRose.com 2 Africa ©Bonnie Rose Hudson WriteBonnieRose.com 3 ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________ ©Bonnie Rose Hudson WriteBonnieRose.com 4 World War II Notebooking Unit The World War II Notebooking Unit is a way to help your children explore World War II in a way that is easy to personalize for your family and interests.
