Propaganda in WWII When World War
II started, some nations were ready for war and some were not. All nations had to use propaganda in order to get their citizens ready for war.
Responding to WW II Propaganda
Each piece of media is an example of propaganda from WWII.
As you view and listen, answer these questions:– What country is it from?– How do you know? Explain your thinking.– What was the creator trying to say (theme)?– Who is it meant for (audience)?

When The Lights Go On Again
When the lights go on again all over the world
And the boys are home again all over the world
And rain or snow is all that may fall from the skies above
A kiss won't mean "goodbye" but "Hello to love"
When the lights go on again all over the world
And the ships will sail again all over the world
Then we'll have time for things like wedding rings and free hearts will sing
When the lights go on again all over the world
Your Turn As you observe each example of
WWII propaganda, respond to the questions on your student worksheet.
After everyone has had time to respond, we will “buzz” with our table groups about our thinking.
