Episode 13: World War 1

  • Summary

  • When World War I erupted in Europe, the United States initially remained neutral—but as the war raged on, America’s entry would help tip the balance in favor of the Allies.

    In this episode of The U.S. History Curriculum Companion, we review the causes of World War I, the reasons behind America’s involvement, and the impact of the war on both the battlefield and the home front. We’ll discuss trench warfare, technological advancements, key battles, and the role of American forces in the final push for victory. Finally, we’ll explore the Treaty of Versailles and how the war reshaped America’s position in world affairs.

    This episode is designed to accompany our World War 1 unit plan for our complete American History curriculum, which includes resources and lessons designed for middle school and high school classrooms.

    Students of History provides engaging lessons and resources for every unit in American History, along with World History, Civics & Government, and World Geography. You can learn more at StudentsofHistory.com.
