World War I Post Card Project 
Pick four different battles from World War I. For each battle, pick a country that fought in that battle (must pick four different countries); two from the Allied Powers (not including the U.S.), and two from the Central Powers. Pretending you are a soldier there, write a post card home from each battle. Remember, post cards are brief! Describe where you are. What is the battle like? What do you see? What do you experience? Find an image that illustrates a main feature of that battle for the front of the post card. For example, a battle that took place in the middle of a harsh winter could use a snow scene. Post cards should be actual size (do not use a large poster board). Make a mobile with all the post cards. Make a Power Point showing the front and back of the post card in a larger size (for the class to see), and one slide showing how the experiences were similar, and another slide showing how the experiences were different.
