PHS students create WWII dioramas

Students in Mr. Josh Cole's history classes at Perryville High School recently created dioramas depicting trench warfare in World War I. Pictured are (from left) Nikiti Conklin, Victor Vandeven, Kaleb Worley and Wyatt Moritz. Students could use any material to construct their dioramas, and class discussions centered around the difficulties soldiers faced when spending months in the cold, wet and disease-infested trenches. "Creating these dioramas really brought home the horror of trench warfare to the students," Cole said. "It gave us a great starting place for exploring this unit on World War I."
