World War I WebQuest
What is it like to be in a conflict as a civilian in the war zone?
Civilians in the combat zones are not members of the armed forces, 
but they are the ones who must bear the burden of all wars.
Instructions:
Your task is to follow each of the following pairs of links. After visiting each set of sites, your team should:
1.	Discuss what it was like to be a civilian in the combat zones during World War I, as if you were this participant.
2.	Go to your team’s worksheet and write down an understanding or truth, based on the set #1 workstation/internet sites that you just visited [see below]
3.	Then proceed to the next pair of sites of materials and repeat steps 1 and 2
4.	When you have visited, discussed and written down your understandings from the 3 sets of websites and/or other work stations that you visited, you will then complete the last section of your worksheet that answers the question “What was it like to be a civilian during this conflict?"

Remember, in the next stage [Stage 2] of this WebQuest, each member of your team will be sharing your team’s response with a larger group of participants. Make sure your understanding and analysis will help this larger group understand the essential question.
Remember - your entire team will be assessed on what you write down and turn in!
