Tools from the State Archives for Teaching World War II (Webinar)

January 15, 2020 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Free

Florida’s contributions to the war effort during World War II were both extensive and varied. Floridians had to contend with coastal blackouts, German submarines lurking offshore, sabotage attempts, strict rationing and the challenges of accommodating thousands of troops who came to take advantage of the state’s ideal climate for military training. Join State Archives education officer Katrina Harkness and historian Dr. Josh Goodman for an exploration of primary sources and other tools you can use to add some local Florida flair to your World War II unit this year. The resources selected correspond to the state standards and include ADA-compliant transcripts.
