For the first part of our unit on World War 1 you are tasked with writing a war journal from the perspective of a junior officer fighting in the trenches. Put yourself in the shoes of an officer fighting at the front during WWI and in the journal describe your thoughts and feelings on certain subjects - using varied descriptive language to describe the reality of life at the front.
Below you will find some information to help you understand what life was like in the trenches during WWI:
