Students explain how Spain was affected during the Holocaust. Students work together to inform others about the Holocaust and other atrocities that have or are currently occurring, especially in Spain. They either work with the Holocaust Museum or locally. Students are provided with books and resources that can be used to obtain background knowledge. They visit the Holocaust Museum.
Students determine how they can make a difference in their world today.
The students' role is to discover what happened and why. They create a presentation or a web page for people in their community to let them know about current genocides taking place in the world today. Students have the option of making a power point presentation, publishing information on a web page, or making a display for the Holocaust Museum. Student projects are assessed using a rubric. The students communicate with survivors or others, especially people in Spain, affected by the Holocaust via e-mail.
