I have used this in my classroom for a few years now and it is really helpful for my students with visual/hearing impairment, but also for all my students since it allows them to see, hear and read the information.
5-stars...made the maps simple and easy to understand for people who do not have the historical background of why we fought this war
Perfect for students to understand the geography and strategies of WWII. The visual explanation makes it easier for students to understand how the world powers work together today and then.
This is a valuable resource when teaching World War II.
