SKU: HOLL7

This lesson contains:

  • A 'do it now' starter based on previous learning on the course, but this can be edited to suit what you have taught.
  • An overview of the situation n 1939 after Hitler had invaded Poland and started WW2. Students then find out that Jews were forced to move into ghettos. Students define the word in their books. There is then a short video from YouTube to reinforce this idea.
  • A closer look, in particular, at the Warsaw Ghetto. Students find out where it was, how many went there and how it looked. This is a video from YouTube that reinforced this information and gives some insight into life in the ghettos, as well as an optional clip from Schlinder's list which I have edited with questions across the screen to consider as it's playing.
  • The main activity for the students to study 4 source 'packs'. Each info card has 2-3 pieces of information and images, as well as 'prompts' for them to consider and help them make notes about what life was like in their worksheet tables. There is an extension activity on the board.
  • A slide which goes over the major consequences of the ghettos for students to add to their notes if they didn't get them.
  • A plenary to get students to consolidate their learning with some simple questions.
