While the discussion of war is rarely ever boring, giving students an image to view, such as this one which depicts the actions of the soldiers who landed on the beach at Normandy gives students a different perspective. Students could analyze this photo, guided by questions such as: Where are the soldiers going, do you think their actions would be discrete? What would you be thinking if you were a soldier trekking through water?

Students should know from which perspective the photo was taken, what side of the war took the photo, why Normandy was important, and the outcome of this event.
