Download Holocaust Timeline Teacher's Handbook Extract Holocaust Timeline Teacher ’s Handbook HOLOCAUST TIMELINE and TEACHER’S HANDBOOK The Holocaust Timeline Wallchart The Timeline Wallchart is designed to give a linear overview of the Nazi Holocaust in Europe, 1933–1945. It also prompts us to consider the consequences of the Holocaust and its relevance in our world today. It is accompanied by a teacher’s handbook. The pages of the Timeline take the form of a concertina-book in two sections of ten panels each. These can be opened out and attached to the wall, or stretched out on the classroom floor or across desks, thus giving a visual impression of the timeframe of the Holocaust. Apart from the first two introductory pages, ‘Before the Holocaust’ and ‘1933 –1945 The Holocaust’, each page represents a single year which may be studied separately or as part of the whole. Each bullet-point on the individual pages may serve as a single lesson-topic, and may be researched further on its own or as part of the study of one particular year. The Teacher’s Handbook The Handbook has suggestions for lessons, individual or classroom activities, special topics/lesson extenders, resource material, images, suggestions for projects, questions and answers, and extracts from personal diaries. All of the material should impart knowledge, develop skills, prompt reflection, and consider attitudes. Teachers are urged to develop further lessons on particular topics and to encourage their students to research and find out more. Suggested readings, DVDs and websites are also included. Studying the Holocaust is interdisciplinary; there is a lot of overlap. Teachers and students from disparate areas will find connections, whether they are studying History, Religion, CSPE (Citizenship), English, Art, Drama, Human Rights, Sociology, Anthropology, Law, Media Studies, or other subjects. Age appropriate Although suggested age suitability is given beside most lesson plans, teachers are encouraged to use their own discretion in considering whether their students are mature enough to engage with certain subjects and to what degree they should do so. Older students (17 years) can address any of the topics, but some subjects, such as the killing process in the death camps and the activities of the Einsatzgruppen , are NOT recommended for younger students. The Holocaust Timeline and Teacher’s Handbook are designed to encourage students to: ■ Explore their own attitudes and consider their own experiences about prejudice and bigotry as well as tolerance, respect and integration ■ Examine their roles and responsibilities regarding ethnic, racial and religious bias ■ Think critically about attitudes and acts of prejudice, discrimination, violence and genocide ■ Learn that violence and genocide begin with attitudes of hate and bigotry ■ Reflect on the consequences of the Holocaust and their relevance in our world today • Images from the Wallchart and Teacher’s Handbook can be accessed on the HETI website: hetireland.org/programmes/holocaust-education-resources/holocaust-timeline-wallchart-teachers-handbook/ This Teacher’s Handbook is also available in Irish.

  • Kristallnacht Caption: Local Residents Watch As Flames Consume The
    Kristallnacht Caption: Local residents watch as flames consume the synagogue in Opava, set on fire during Kristallnacht. Description of event: Literally, "Night of Crystal," is often referred to as the "Night of Broken Glass." The name refers to the wave of violent anti-Jewish pogroms which took place throughout Germany, annexed Austria, and in areas of the Sudetenland in Czechoslovakia recently occupied by German troops. Instigated primarily by Nazi Party officials and members of the SA (Sturmabteilungen: literally Assault Detachments, but commonly known as Storm Troopers) and Hitler Youth, Kristallnacht owes its name to the shards of shattered glass that lined German streets in the wake of the pogrom- broken glass from the windows of synagogues, homes, and Jewish-owned businesses plundered and destroyed during the violence. Nuremberg Laws Caption: A young baby lies on a park bench marked with a J to indicate it is only for Jews. Description of event: Antisemitism and the persecution of Jews represented a central tenet of Nazi ideology. In their 25-point Party Program, published in 1920, Nazi party members publicly declared their intention to segregate Jews from "Aryan" society and to abrogate Jews' political, legal, and civil rights.Nazi leaders began to make good on their pledge to persecute German Jews soon after their assumption of power. During the first six years of Hitler's dictatorship, from 1933 until the outbreak of war in 1939, Jews felt the effects of more than 400 decrees and regulations that restricted all aspects of their public and private lives. Many of those laws were national ones that had been issued by the German administration and affected all Jews.

  • “And Then They Came for Me...”
    “AND THEN THEY CAME FOR ME...” (Image: The National WWII Museum, 2014.057.036_1.) Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party’s rise to power in Germany ushered in an era of attacks against people Hitler deemed undesirable. Jews living across Europe became the primary target of Nazi hatred and violence. Attacks against other groups of people—such as individuals with mental or physical disabilities, political prisoners, Romani, Soviet citizens and prisoners of war, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) people, Slavs, and Jehovah’s Witnesses—also became a part of the Nazi program to “purify” German society. Those who did not fit within Nazi standards of a “master race” faced capture and horrific brutality in the attempted genocide now known as the Holocaust. From 1939 to 1941, the Nazis steadily took steps toward a formal policy of extermination. Known as the Final Solution, this policy spread to each region that fell under Nazi rule throughout World War II. Anti-Semitism had been present throughout Europe for centuries, peaking during times of upheaval, such as the Crusades or outbreaks of plague. This historical precedent perpetuated hateful stereotypes that again resurfaced in the era of upheaval that followed Germany’s defeat in World War I. While anti-Semitism had been limited to fringe political groups, the rising popularity of the Nazi Party helped promote ideas of segregating and removing the Jewish population from the region. While not all Germans actively supported the anti-Semitic attacks taken by the Nazis, many adopted an attitude of indifference toward the treatment of their Jewish neighbors.

  • [email protected] Vichy, Crimes Against Humanity
    Henry Rousso Institut d’histoire du temps présent (CNRS, Paris) [email protected] Vichy, Crimes against Humanity, and the Trials for Memory Department of French-Italian, Department of History The University of Texas at Austin Lecture given at 9/11/2003 I would like to begin this talk about the way France coped with its past by making some general statements. Why it may be interesting to study the Vichy legacy, except of course if you are impassionned by French History? Why the history of the memory of the “Dark Years”, the years of the Nazi Occupation, may have some interest for other periods or other situations, in contemporary history? Why to study preciseley how the representations of the past or the behaviour towards the past has evolved from 1944, the Liberation, to the present days, may have a universal meaning ? We can propose several answers : - We may learn a lot in studying the “Dark years” because it’s a period in which a great power, the second world power at that time in terms of political and economic influence, collapsed in six weeks, after a brutal and unexpected agression against its territory. The panic of the defeat, the disarray coming from the vanishing of the State and of other authorities, led to a strong support for a dictatorship, the Vichy Regime, which abolished most of the political rights. The new regime, using the fear of most of the population, declared that France was no more a Republic, and that she had a lot of ennemies : not the Nazi Occupiers, but the Jews, the Foreigners, the Free- Masons, all kind of opponents: in short, for Vichy, one of the result of the defeat, ennemies were at home.
