Part A - SEA

** How can this series of maps be used in the classroom? ** These maps can be used to study troop movement during the war. It also could be use to show were and when the Nazis took over Europe and the vast area the Allies had to re-occupy Europe and to subdue Hitler.

**What prior information would be necessary for students to use these maps effectively?** The students need to know a little about WWII, from key battles to leaders. The also need to know geography and where each battle was (country and continent)

Yes, I would. Since I teach WWII to my students, and we talk about most of the Europe battles, these maps would fit perfectly into my lessons.
 * Would you use these maps in your classroom? Why or why not?**

**Part C:**

Maps can be used in Math to measure distance and mileage. Maps can be used to look at population numbers and calculate human interest issues. Maps can be used in Science to trace discoveries of artifacts . Maps can be used in English when writing a cause and effect essay: topic - Nazi Concentration Movement and The Fight to Free the People Maps are effective supplemental materials in Social Studies when looking at history and understanding World War II.
