Students will be intrigued by the story of two Canadian secret agents who worked in France in WWII. They will then examine the Ethical Dimension of this story in history, along with Christian Critical Thinking – Is a lie always wrong? Of course, as in all my curriculum, I do the research for parents/teachers, and give you great sources for thinking/answering this question while leaving it up to parental convictions.
A curated and reviewed audio story from a Canadian pilot who experienced help in enemy territory during WWII is valuable as a first-hand (primary source) account.
