Holocaust Unit
February 07, 2024
Mrs. Castle’s eighth grade English classes have been doing a deep dive into the Holocaust. The semester began with students watching the movie Hidden in Silence to gain a basic understanding of this time period. After that, students selected a topic on which to complete an expository research paper. To end the unit, students will read Daniel’s Story by Carol Matas, which was inspired by the real experiences of many of the more than one million children who died in the Holocaust.
