Dachau: Still Being Read In The Classroom

In the book Escape Children of the Holocaust I learned about how important the Jewish legacy is, how difficult the holocaust was on Jewish children and families and how brave Hanci, Halina and Gideon were. I hope the Jewish legacy goes on forever; you can tell they lived a long hard life and they need an ovation. The book gave me a very accurate account, in my opinion, of the Holocaust. It showed me how the Jews lived during the Holocaust in an actual first person perspective. I admire Hanci for her bravery and endurance to hide in the snow while Nazis searched for

Personally, the book taught me a lot about how people deal with situations when under pressure, people’s need for power and how easy it really if for a war to break out and I found that in my mind I could easily link what was going

Have you ever met someone who survived the holocaust. They are broken; They have seen things that would make people from this era run into a corner, cry, and hide. They have weathered storms you could not imagine, and it destroyed them mentally. Now there are also people who got broken in a different way. Those people fought in gangs and were shot at on a daily basis. It made them have no care for their family or their education. Both “The Diary of Anne Frank” and “Freedom Writers” teach us that people will always find some way to survive.

There were about 500,000 living survivors of the Holocaust in 2014. It is vital for students to be taught about the Holocaust in school. The article, "combating" shows that the students need to be aware that the event did in fact happen. The article "Genocide" shows students what happens when hate against one group or culture becomes too much. Elie Wiesel's Night shows students an eyewitness account of how much violence, brutality, and abuse to the prisoners had to go through in the Holocaust. Though some people are against the subject of the Holocaust because it is too graphic or mature for the students, it is important that students learn from a trusted adult instead of letting other students try to teach it to themselves. The students should learn about the subject of the Holocaust in school because it teaches the importance of equality, about the events occurrence, and teaching about the dangers of discrimination and abuse.

I’ve found that there’s many creations regarding the Holocaust; it’s never letting us forget the atrocities of it’s past. It’s something we should recognize because it had an enormous impact to us and the ones around us. Not only should it be recognized for the impact it created, but it should be taught to us because we wouldn’t want this such tragedy to be repeated.

Dear Mr. Wiesel, I have read your book ‘Night’ and I really like it. In fact, it's shed more light on things I didn't know about the Holocaust. I never fully grasped what people could actually go through and how much hurt they could go through before they break. You didn't break tho, you were able to stay strong and not let anything get to you. You may have changed while you were in that camp, Mr. Wiesel but most people wouldn't have made it out if they went through that today so in my eyes you are a hero, if you wouldn't have been strong I wouldn't have read this story and I wouldn't know how strong I have to be to get through life. If you can live through that I can live through anything, so thank you. I'm so very sorry that you went through

The book Hitler Youth: Growing Up in Hitler’s Shadow (Hitler Youth) will teach readers so much they probably didn’t know about the holocaust. It is filled with so many interesting facts and the descriptions are so detailed that they will make the reader feel like they’re there. This is a great

I choose this book because anytime I have to read a nonfiction book, the only nonfiction books I can read and enjoy reading the book are about Holocaust for some reason. I’m not sure why though. I got it at the school library, and my friend Elaina recommend me to read this book. The title appealed to me because it

Traces from the most brutal massacre in human history is beginning to disappear. This is why the Holocaust should continue to be taught in schools. The book Night by survivor Elie Wiesel gives reasons why this sad tragedy should not be forgotten. People were treated like animals for twelve years, by Hitler. Notice, that if they were to make one bad move their life could end quickly within seconds. During that time they were dealing with dehumanization, starvation and a fight for survival.

The Holocaust was a very memorable time in our history and there is a lot we can learn from it. The books Night and The Book Thief are good examples of what went on during the Holocaust in and outside of the camps. The book Night , an autobiography written by Elie Wiesel tells the story of what it was like inside the camps and how he survived it. The Book Thief, written by Markus Zusak is a historical fiction book tell about how it was like to live in a small town in Germany. Both these book have a lot of interesting facts and there is so much we can learn from them.

More than 11 million people were victims of the Holocaust. Only over 200,000 of the victims survived, but in many schools, their stories are left untold. While it may be true that the facts about the Holocaust are rather mortifying, students can benefit from learning them. Many people choose to ignore the benefits, and do not teach it, but it’s history and history must be taught. If not ignoring that, they’ll say they have too much content to cover, but that statement is flawed in a multitude of ways.

As we all know, the Holocaust was a crucial time for everyone and authors have used different techniques to really show the readers the damage that was done. In “The Boy In The Striped Pajamas” written by John Boyne, the main character becomes friendly with a Jewish boy on the other side on the fence and he learns the torture of being on that side. In the novel, “The Devil’s Arithmetic” by Jane Yolen, a teenage girl does not understand her religion but then is transported back in time to learn to respect it. In “Teens Against Hitler” created by Lauren Tarshis, we learn about young men escaping camps and helping others leave in order to stop Hitler. And last but not least in the article, “Betrayed By America” by Kristin Lewis, multiple families

Ever since we started talking about the Holocaust, I have been interested in learning more about Dachau concentration camp. I have actually been to Dachau and I knew a small amount of information about it but now I know way more. The most surprising thing I learned about Dachau was that is was the first camp ever built, but it was not to brutally beat the prisoners but eventually turned into a prison like that. Also that if someone tried to escape, the whole prison was punished. Why learning about this matters because the Holocaust was the most tragic event to ever happen in history. Also this event is something that everyone should be educated on and know what it was like back then and what people had to go through. The part I enjoyed most

Being high school students, it is hard to connect to anything involving the Holocaust, but the way the story is written we get more of a connection to the people inside the

When my brother wasn't to be heard from everyone who was calling, my worry level was beginning to rise higher and higher.. I thought about this book and just kept praying that he would be home like Fadi when he lost his sister. I got a text the next day saying he was ok and was staying at our cousin’s house. I was so happy and most of all, relieved. This book made the bond between me and my siblings stronger and I couldn't nor would I trade it for the world itself.
