This week in class, we began our 4th unit: “Nazi Germany and the Holocaust”. In this series of lessons, students will dive deeply into a historical case study about the Holocaust, practicing historical thinking skills while finding links to the universal themes of human behavior they examined in the last 3 units.
The last few weeks, students have been learning about World War I in preparation for learning about World War II and the Holocaust when we return from break.
The last few weeks, students have been presenting their family interview presentations in class. It has been wonderful learning from and about each other! We’ve also enjoyed having many parents join us.

This week, students were assigned the “6th Grade Yachad Family Interview Project.”
This week, students started wrapping up our 1st Unit: Eastern Europe Jewry and the Great Migration.
