Education: Grade(s): 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 Cost $FREE! What was it like to be a Jew in Europe prior to World War II? How was your life different from non-Jews? What did you know about the regime in Nazi Germany and what happened to you as a result of its rule? What was it like to be sent away from your parents on the Kindertransport or to stay in your home country and be taken away to a concentration camp? What was life like in the camps? What did it mean to be liberated? For this very special program, take your study of World War II and the Holocaust to individuals who lived through them. Ask these questions and more as you interact with Holocaust survivors. Our focus in this program will not be exploring the historic details of World War II or the Holocaust, but it will be to provide students the rare and important opportunity to speak directly with those who lived during that time and survived to share their experiences with others. This program will come live from the Holocaust Museum and Learning Center in St. Louis. The program will also include information about resources available through the Center.

Create your own "Choose Your Own Adventure" story -------------- I can see this as a fab way to incorporate research, creativity, and critical thinking (21st century learning) with historical events. For example, what if George Washington hadn't decided to have his troops inoculated against the smallpox epidemic during the Revolutionary War? -- How would that have affected the casualty rate? -- and from there the adventure could show a possible different outcome.

A look at advertising can introduce students to persuasive writing, the effect of different music, colors and mediums, critical thinking and problem solving.

I like to have students to consider both sides of advertising.  First, what does it mean to be a consumer and how does advertising play into that?  Second, how would you create an advertisement that reaches a target audience?

You can also tie advertising to history by asking students to look at World War II posters
