WWII by the Numbers
Charting and Graphing D-Day and WWII Data

Organizing and interpreting data is an important skill when analyzing historical events. Raw data are the
building blocks for interpreting what happened in the past, what is going on in the present, and what may
occur in the future. The following lesson plan asks students to create three types of graphs using
statistics from D-Day and World War II and then analyze their results by answering interpretive questions.

OBJECTIVE: Students analyze the size and scope of World War II and D-Day by charting and
graphing statistics and interpreting their findings.

GRADE LEVEL: 7-12

STANDARDS: History Thinking Standard 2—the student will engage in historical analysis and
interpretation while utilizing visual and mathematical data.

Content Era 8 (1929-1945), Standard 3B—the student understands World War II
and how the Allies prevailed.

TIME REQUIREMENT: One class period.

DIRECTIONS:

1. Copy and pass out the worksheets and have students use the given data to create a line graph, a pie
chart, and a bar graph, then answer the questions that follow. This activity can be an individual or
group activity depending on your specific needs in the classroom.

2. Use the statistical data from the three activities to lead a short discussion of the size and scope of
World War II and D-Day.

ASSESSMENT: Components for assessment include the completed worksheet and class
discussion.

ENRICHMENT: Have students collect data (such as poll numbers, statistics, or forecasts) about
any current event from the newspaper, magazines, or the Internet and organize
that data in a graph, which includes a short essay explaining their source, their
data, and their analysis.
