Does your learner think studying the French Revolution is boring? This interactive simulation is the answer! They won’t just study the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror—they’ll experience it.

Step into the shoes of Alexandre Dumas, a military hero and general in the French Revolutionary Army. In Surviving the Terror: The French Revolution, learners are thrust into one of the most chaotic and morally complex periods of history. As a leader, they’ll navigate political upheaval, moral dilemmas, and life-altering decisions that could change the course of history. With the Revolution at its peak, the National Convention has replaced the monarchy, and the Reign of Terror is in full swing. Fear and suspicion cloud the streets, and each decision could mean life or death. As a trusted officer in the Revolutionary Army, learners will grapple with questions of loyalty, justice, and survival.

What’s Included:

• 64-slide interactive PDF with immersive, historically accurate scenarios
• 7 decision-based challenges to test critical thinking and ethical reasoning
• A comprehensive simulation journal for reflection, tracking decisions, and deeper learning

Perfect for engaging learners in history, honing decision-making skills, and exploring the complexities of loyalty, morality, and survival during one of history’s most tumultuous eras.

Why This Isn’t Your Ordinary Simulation

Let’s face it—history can be dry if it’s just a laundry list of dates and events. (Who remembers the year the French Revolution started anyway?) Attention spans have evolved, so instead of relying on lectures, this simulation offers total immersion in the era. It’s not just a slideshow of historical facts—it’s a complete lesson that puts learners in the driver’s seat.

Throughout the simulation, students use their journal to track decisions, outcomes, and notes from the informational slides. This means they not only learn about the French Revolution, but they live it—making choices, weighing pros and cons, and grappling with moral dilemmas right alongside the historical figures of the time.

Flexible Timing, Deeper Engagement

How long does it take to complete? Well, that’s up to your learners! Some classes breeze through the scenarios if they’re more reserved, while others can’t resist debating every option (trust me, once they start weighing the pros and cons, it’s hard to stop). This flexible structure lets you adapt the lesson to your classroom’s energy and curiosity.

A Labor of Love

For better or worse, creating these simulations has become my life’s work—because the results speak for themselves. Few activities garner the same excitement and engagement as these immersive lessons. Students aren’t just memorizing dates; they’re experiencing pivotal moments in history, which leads to greater retention and a spark of genuine interest in the past.

If you’re ready to see your learners light up with curiosity (and maybe crack a few jokes about guillotines along the way), Surviving the Terror: The French Revolution is the perfect adventure.

Add this one-of-a-kind historical journey to your teaching toolkit and transform your classroom into a place where history isn’t just read about—it’s lived. Bon voyage to dull lectures—your trip to Revolutionary France starts now!
