This collection includes resources to accompany the text The Children of Willesden Lane, the powerful true story of Lisa Jura, who fled Nazi-occupied Vienna on the Kindertransport as a child.
Students are introduced to the enormity of the crimes committed during the Holocaust and look closely at stories of a few individuals who were targeted by Nazi brutality.
Students deepen their examination of human behaviour during the Holocaust by analysing and discussing the range of choices available to individuals, groups, and nations.
Students both respond to and design Holocaust memorials as they consider the impact that memorials and monuments have on the way we think about history.
Jewish Identity and the Complexities of Dual or Multiple Belongings
Students continue to explore the question “Who am I?” by examining the concept of dual or multiple identities and reflecting on their own identities as Jews.
