So far, so good. The kids are very interested in this unit (with the exception of those who "hate war stuff"). One cooperative strategy that worked really well for me several times was "jot thoughts." Tom, you've seen this one.
We were going to do a mock D-Day invasion plan and we had done the same thing for Vimy. I told the teams they would have 2 minutes to write as many ideas on slips of paper that related to Vimy as they could. Students did their own and at the end they were told to sort them into 3 categories: technology used, strategies used, and significant effects of the battle. Teams reported and I filled in part of the chart I gave them on the o/h. After the D-Day research, we filled in the same categories for D-Day to see how the 2 battles compared...striking similiarities and the kids got the idea that technology became a much bigger part of war. If anyone wants the D-Day stuff, I will forward it to you.
