Last month I shared History Animated which is one of my favorite resources for helping students understand the course of military actions during World War II. This morning through Open Culture I learned about a nice video that pairs well with History Animated.

WWII in Europe: Every Day is a seven minute video that depicts the changing front lines of the European Theater of World War II every day from the German invasion of Poland to the surrender of Germany. The video includes audio samples of the voices of Hilter, Mussolini, and Roosevelt.

Applications for Education

This video could be a good model for your students to follow to create their own timelapse videos about WWII’s Pacific theater.
