Before the United States entered the War, some Texans had already joined the fight in Europe as volunteers. The American Field Service has created a free downloadable curriculum, lesson plans, and a teacher toolkit focused on this period of the war available on the AFS website (http://thevolunteers.afs.org/news/2014/3/9/the-volunteers-americans-join-world-war-i-1914-1919). Educating young Texans is a key part our mission. If you know an educator, tell them about the World War I Centennial Commemoration effort and the resources available to them.
