Learning Activities

These learning activities engage both educators and students into the rich military history of the Italian Campaign. The activities will help stimulate and encourage discussions about the achievements and sacrifices of Canada's Veterans, and reflect the importance of Remembrance and commemoration of these Veterans. This module supports learning outcomes of provincial Social Studies curricula.

• Activity 1 - A Lesson in History

We also developed a SmartBoard lesson plan on Operation Husky, detailing the participation of Canadians in the liberation of Sicily in 1943. You can download the lesson plan on the Smart Exchange Web page.
