https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl Friday's lesson: Place your pin on the map on the Eastern Front and explain why you believe that land warfare was important in leading to the victory of the Second World War. Think about the environment of the Eastern Front. We will plot our pins around the world in future lessons and think about how their environment helped the outcome of the war. en-us 2020-03-12 23:42:10 UTC 2023-02-06 12:40:28 UTC hello@padlet.com jdraper6 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045487 2020-03-13 14:57:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045487 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045504 Land was important in shaping the course of the war because Germans weren’t used to the environment of the Western Front and the Russians were. This gave the Russians the upper hand to surround the Germans and attack them. If the German army wasn’t unfamiliar with the terrain, they wouldn’t have fallen into the trap.]]> 2020-03-13 14:57:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045504 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045521 This was a land battle which was in the Russians favour because they understood the terrain while the Germans could not handle the extreme weather and mountainous terrain.]]> 2020-03-13 14:57:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045521 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045541 Stalingrad was surrounded by land troops, so it was mostly a land fought battle]]> 2020-03-13 14:57:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045541 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045550 Because they fought on land, the cold weather and harsh conditions made it difficult for Germany to win the battle. ]]> 2020-03-13 14:57:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045550 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045556 All were very influential. In this theatre of war, the Eastern Front, the land warfare was the most influential. The collapse of Germany’s  6th army and the 4th panzer army made it possible for the Soviets to push back hard into the Baltic states and eventually Poland and Germany. Wehrmacht was not enough and was too occupied with the western front in the Ardennes region.]]> 2020-03-13 14:57:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045556 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045572 Because they fought on land, the cold weather made it very difficult for German Soldiers to cope as in Germany it isn't so cold. This meant the allies found it easier to drive them out.]]> 2020-03-13 14:57:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045572 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045581 Land was essential in the eastern front battles because the terrain and weather conditions (cold and snow) because it meant that germany was out of their comfort zone and didn’t use their resources effectively within these conditions where as russia who were used to this had a much better plan and knowledge of the places so they could properly prepare for it.

Land allowed the Germans to invade Russia without the Russians knowing until much after they started to travel towards the Soviet Union.

Stalingrad, one of the most influential battles in the eastern front, was fought mainly on land]]> 2020-03-13 14:58:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045666 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045730 Starlingrad was Important because it had the eastern front.

The flat open plains on the Eastern Front provided little cover for the Axis and Allied forces. However, the rough terrain and weather startled the Axis as they weren’t used to it like the Red Army. This allowed the Allies to exploit their knowledge of the landscape and win the decisive battle of Stalingrad even after loosing badly in Operation Barbarossa. ]]> 2020-03-13 14:58:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045769 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045770 I think that land was the most important, especially the Eastern Front, this disadvantaged Germany, as they had spent a lot of resources and supplies on the battle of Stalingrad and Operation Barbarossa. They had spent so many supplies because they weren’t used to the conditions, and Russia were, and were prepared. This caused land to be more influential in shaping the course of the war because these battles were very significant as it gave a huge advantage to the allies, and severely disadvantaged Germany]]> 2020-03-13 14:58:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045770 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045794 In my opinion air was the most influential because it was the most appropriate option to use in these conditions, yet the war was fought on land, and aided our win so was also significant on the impact of this battle;)]]> 2020-03-13 14:58:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045794 https://padlet.com/jdraper6/74j8t3hfq7cl/wish/460045956 Land was the most important cause that led to the Soviet Union’s success because of the harsh weather that exhausted Germany’s food and resources which Russia were used to.
