An, Sohyun
Social Studies and the Young Learner, v33 n3 p24-32 Jan-Feb 2021
I am a teacher educator from South Korea. In this article, I introduce two international children's books on the Korean War and a fifth grade lesson based on the books to teach the Korean War through a critical lens. Before proceeding, I first explicate why teaching about wars critically, including the Korean War, is vital.
