This lesson is one of a series of lessons on the Second World War aimed primarily at students in KS3. Students are asked to consider why the allies wanted revenge on their enemies in the Pacific. The lesson begins with an engaging picture starter of a sinking ship at Pearl Harbour which gains student curiosity. The lesson then introduces students to a variety of source materials including video clip, pictures and written sources to gain knowledge about the start of the war in the Pacific, the Japanese enemy, and the treatment of allied prisoners of war at the hands of the Japanese. The lesson ends with students producing a piece of their own wartime propaganda encouraging support for the war against the Japanese in the Pacific.
Lesson is well planned, however, the video link for the starter links to a private video so cannot open/use this resource.

Thank you for your fair review of this resource. I was unaware that an inaccessible link had been added to the starter activity. I am pleased that you have let me know and this will be rectified later today. In the meantime this link to the attack scene of the film Pearl Harbour can be used for the starter activity.
