This Causes of WWII lesson investigates why people voted for Hitler and how his policies led to the outbreak of WWII. This lesson can be used to focus on the causes of WWII as it links to the Treaty of Versailles, Great Depression and Appeasement, or it could be used in a Germany 1890-1945 depth study, explaining why people voted for Hitler.

It is fully planned with plenty of activities for your students to complete including a starter, clip questions/activities, an information sheet with table to complete, a think pair share activity, mini-plenaries, a consolidation evaluation written question and a plenary.
