Elizabeth refused to leave England despite being advised to travel to safety in Canada by the Cabinet. "The princesses would never leave without me, and I couldn’t leave without the King, and the King would never leave," she said. Buckingham Palace even took a direct hit during the height of the bombing although luckily no-one was hurt.

WWII Battle Posters Project• Please see the folder with the same name for

all the documents you need for this project…The State standards ask us to cover every major battle in WWII. These battles are heavily represented on my tests and state tests. We will be working with this information by making Posters on each significant battle.

Axis Powers, handed over the command of his desert armies to General Rommel.

• BadHitler, the leader of the

Allies, handed over the command of his desert armies to General Patton.

poorly crafted sentence, bad grammar and incorrect spelling!

• Label EVERYTHING– Don’t make your readers guess at what they are

reading or looking at!

Leaders: Hitler, the leader of the Axis Powers, handed over the command of his desert armies to General Rommel.
