Hello John,
 
We did a knot tying activity and the kids got to keep the knot they made (square knots are pretty easy). This is not necessarily WWII but it is Navy, engaging and inexpensive. Good luck with your program.
 
Take care,

You can check out our WWII in Mississippi Teaching Unit and see if there is anything that might be helpful. It is Mississippi based, but there are some general WWII facts and activities in there. It can be found at the following link.

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know of games/learning activities, or sources of ideas for learning activites, for children in the late elementary to middle school age that focus on World War II history and Naval history in World War II?

I am looking to put together an educational program for visiting school children and cub/boy scout troops.

Any ideas or leads in the right direction would be much appreciated!

John
