What teachers are saying about this World War I Unit:

❤️ “I liked how this resource was "chunked". It helped guide me through teaching WW1 for the first time. I took the quizzes and turned them into Google Forms for easier grading of 100+ students.”

❤️ “I cannot say enough about Brainy Apples' products! We've yet to be even slightly disappointed. My daughter does not enjoy history or social studies much, so we had to look beyond the textbook for her. These bundles are the perfect answer! The perfect combination of reading and comprehension and fun power points and videos. We've used several of these now, and now my daughter seeks out the videos used in the PowerPoint on her own for other subjects she wants to learn more about! She even happily watches history/social studies documentaries now. I highly recommend this bundle!”

❤️ “This is a great set, reasonably priced, organized into 5 clear sections. It has great video clips associated with it, like Khan Academy. It would have taken me hundreds of hours to do this. Everything is ready for any paper, digital and/or Google experiences. Thank you so much.”

❤️ “I seriously love all of your materials! They are a super-easy way to supplement and review to be sure that all of my students are understanding and retaining the information presented in class. :)”

❤️ “This was fantastic. Everything I needed was right there. The students didn't mind the note taking because of the PowerPoint and the reading articles went with it as well.”

❤️ “Excellent resource -- best one I've found on TPT.”

❤️ “It has been a challenge to get my daughter engaged in the great wars of history and this helped a LOT. These were educational and challenging. They weren't over the top and were broken down into good lesson-sized chunks. Thank you!”

❤️ “No prep means no prep! This bundle was a lifesaver at a time when I had multiple absences because my own child was at home sick! WORTH the money!”
