Term 3: World War One
Your task: World War One was the first time during a major
war many of the men who actually did the fighting and dying
could read and write. As a result many soldiers kept diaries
and wrote letters home. The soldiers did not write about the
horrors of fighting in their letters home because they did not
want to upset their families. The letters were also censored to
make sure that the letters did not contain information that
would give away any important military details. The soldiers
also kept diaries of their life in the trenches and these give us
more detailed information about trench life. You need to
independently research the life of soldiers in the trenches and
create a diary about their experiences. You must include:
What the trenches were like (weather, mud, type of shelter)
Food
Clothes
Dangers
3. Task 2
Draw a picture to show what life was like in
the trenches
