This unit plan outlines a US History lesson for 11th grade students about the Korean War. The objectives are for students to understand how the war affected the US, examine its outcome, and learn about the 38th parallel. The teacher will give a mini lecture covering the division of Korea after WWII, the start of the war in 1950, and how China's entry changed the conflict. Students will then use an interactive map to learn about key battles. For assessment, students will write a journal entry from the perspective of a soldier in one of the battles.
