WW1 facts - true or false?
This low-stakes quiz includes a range of true or false statements for students to discuss. It is perfect for a pre-reading or context starter activity before teaching any World War One poetry.
Example true/false questions from the resource:
- During the summer and autumn of 1914, France lost as many men on the battlefield as the US army would lose in all of the 20th century (the Vietnam War, Korean War, Gulf War and both WW1 and WW2).
- During WW1, 230 soldiers died for each hour of the war.
- There were 70,000,000 people in uniform and of that number, half were either killed, wounded or became prisoners of war.
- The Spanish Flu of 1918 killed between 50-100 million people worldwide (or, 3-5% of the world’s population).
