You should now have an aspect of everyday life that you are going to research and present an exhibition stand for.
I thought i would start you off with some useful websites to start answering your key questions.
remeber you have a lot of options inpresnting your end product/s. think about the skills of your tem members. Is someone particularly artistic? do you have a storywriter or poet? anyone good with making powerpoints of photo stories? a mathematician?
Food in ww2
Sport
Fashion and clothes
families and relationships
weapons

and some other more general sites

woodlands
bbc school radio

I would love to do another study of a book especially the machine gunners or Carrie’s war, but sadly we do not have the time.There is nothing stopping you picking up a good book set in this period. I would love to hear and maybe read your recommendations which I can then share with next year’s class.

Here are some lists of books you may like , Why not check out the local library and save yourself a few quid!
