ED WEBSITE: Lessons Correlate to "The Monuments Men" Movie

[Frank W. Baker]

The Monuments Men (opening February 7) is based on the true story of a group of brave men and women who hunted down and rescued millions of cultural treasures stolen by the Nazis at the close of WWII. The lesson plans, discussion questions, maps and other features can engage learners about this little known chapter in WWII and guide thinking about the importance of protecting cultural heritage in times of war. The lessons are suitable for middle and HS classrooms and are linked to CCSS. http://www.monumentsmeneducation.com/
