Aim: How did the Treaty of Versailles attempt to achieve peace, and to what extent did it succeed?
Bell Ringer: Grade and collect WWI Propaganda Posters
Objectives:
1. Students will examine the provisions of the Treaty of Versailles and the failure of the United States to support the League of Nations.
Agenda:
- 1. Bell Ringer (10 min)
- 2. Imperialism & WWI Exam Study Guide (10 min)
- 3. Activity: Participate in a Treaty of Versailles Simulation (Attachment G). First, pass out a character sheet (Attachment G, page 1-4) to each student so that a third of the students receive Woodrow Wilson, a third receive Clemenceau, and a third David Lloyd George. Read over your character sheets to prepare to take on the role of that person in the simulation. Next, form groups of 3 (one Wilson, one Clemenceau, and one George per group). You will be acting as “The Big Three” to discuss areas of concern and create your own Treaty of Versailles.
- Pass out the options chart and answer sheet (Attachment G, page 5-6) to each group and use the information on the options chart to fill in their answer sheet. Remember you must be “in character.” Finally, discuss the groups’ decisions and reasoning. (25 min)
Home Learning:
