How did Germany excuse its invasion of the Czechoslovakian region known as the Sudetenland in 1938?
The region was home to many German speaking people.

The Sudetenland
What is Sudetenland?
Sudetenland was the western border of Czechoslovakia where nearly 3 million people spoke German. Sudetenland was later given to Germany by Great Britain due to the signing of the Munich Agreement by Daladier and Neville Chamberlain on September 30, 1938 to avoid war.
Was the sudetenland given to Germany by the allies in form of appeasement?
Pretty much. The Allies tried to prevent a war by giving Hitler the Sudetenland, which he wanted, on the condition that it was the last German expansion. (Spoiler: It wasn't)
What part of Czechoslovakia did Hitler demand?
Hitler believed that there was a vast majority of Sudeten Germans in the Sudeten Land, and that by taking over it he was only complying with Wilson's idea of self-determination. He also thought that if in a later war he were to be attacked by the Russians that it would act as a first line of defence. Also by taking over Czechoslovakia he would be that one step closer to Poland and his policy of expanding East.

The Sudetenland belonged to which country?
The Sudetenland was an area in western Czechoslovakia (as it was then) which was German speaking and had some sympathy with German nationalism
What was Hitler demanded and was given what area in northwestern Czechoslovakia?
Hitler requested the return of the Sudetenland, which was heavily German speaking, at the Munich Conference. The Czechs were against it not because they feared the loss of the territory - it was German speaking and not loyal to Czechoslovakia hence was a liability, but because it was mountainous and their fortifications were there. Once Germany controlled the Sudetenland it was a clear shot to Prague.

What is studetenland?
Spelling! Sudetenland. The Sudetenland was part of Germany until 1806 and of the German Confederation between 1815 and 1866. After WWI and under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles the Sudetenland (some 11,000 square miles) became part of Czechoslovakia. As this was a German-speaking area, Hitler naturally claimed it for the Third Reich. The German annexation of the Sudetenland was what was agreed to at Munich in 1938. What Chamberlain and the Allies should have noticed was that the Sudetenland included nearly all Czechoslovakia's defensive works on the German border. Once it was occupied, the taking of the remainder of the country was a mere formality.
What was so important about sudetenland?
Sudetenland was very important to Hitler as it contained roughly 3 million German speaking people. Since, Hitler believed in Anschluss ( reuniting all German speaking), this is why Sudetenland very important to him. Furthermore, Sudetenland is very ( and I mean very) important for Czechoslovakia as it contained their industries. So, losing Sudetenland means losing their industries as well as their defense.

Your teacher probably wants the answer Poland, since it was the German invasion of Poland which led directly to the outbreak of WWII. In fact there had been several German annexations before this (in the 'Sudetenland', and in Austria) which had caused some local fighting. But it was invading Poland which started the big shooting-match.
