WW2: Predicting Hitler's Foreign Policy || Historical Adventure Camp

Does your learner dream of unraveling the complexities of history? In this 3-day camp, they’ll step into the tense world of late 1930s diplomacy, predicting Hitler’s foreign policy moves and the responses of European powers in the lead-up to World War II.

Through an interactive simulation, learners will explore pivotal events such as the reoccupation of the Rhineland, the Anschluss with Austria, and the Sudeten Crisis. Acting as prediction-makers, they’ll analyze Hitler’s decisions, consider diplomatic strategies, and discover how these actions set the stage for global conflict.

Each session concludes with reflective discussions comparing learner predictions to historical outcomes, offering insights into the era’s moral and political complexities. The camp wraps up with a dynamic Kahoot quiz to solidify their knowledge in a fun, competitive format.

This hands-on experience isn’t just about learning history—it’s about living it. By predicting, debating, and reflecting, learners develop critical thinking, leadership, and decision-making skills while uncovering the events that shaped our world.

*Heads-Up: This Class is NOT a Spectator Sport!
This isn’t your typical sit-back-and-zone-out history class—your learner is part of the action! Whether we’re diving into simulations, debates, or critical-thinking challenges, their participation is what makes this class engaging, exciting, and, well… not just another lecture!

That said, if participation turns into radio silence, we’ll have to shift into a lecture-style format to ensure all key material is covered. But let’s be real—that’s way less fun.

So, encourage your learner to jump in, share their thoughts, make decisions, and engage! The more they put into this experience, the more they'll get out of it (and the less likely we are to drift into Lecture Land).

**Another Heads-Up: Punctuality Matters! 
This class runs on engagement and interaction, so arriving on time is key! While late arrivals are always welcome to jump in, we won’t be able to restart simulations or backtrack on missed activities—there’s just too much to cover.

To get the most out of the experience (and avoid feeling lost mid-simulation), being on time is strongly encouraged. Help your learner hit the ground running from the start—it makes for a smoother, more immersive class for everyone!

***Be Prepared & Ready to Dive In!
Each week, all required materials will be posted in the classroom—most are digital-friendly, with a few that may need printing. If printing isn’t your thing, no worries! PDFs can be easily viewed on your device.

Bringing materials to class ensures a smooth, engaging experience—so have everything ready, and let’s make history come alive!
