7th grade class update


Shalom  to our 7th grade parents :

 We are still  continuing  our  discussion  about the Holocaust.  We discussed  the  difference  of each concentration  camps, which camps were  forced  labor  camps and which were  the death camps. 

 On Tuesday, we began watching the documentary, Paper Clips, about a school in White Hill, Tennessee. This school  started  a huge project learning  about the  Holocaust.  When  they started  learning  about it, the teacher  said, " that there  were 6,000,000 Jews that were killed  my Nazi Germany".  One student didn't  understand the number  6,000,000. There teacher  said," let's find an object  to start collecting  so we could have a better understanding of the number 6,000,000." They started  to look of small objects  to collect. They came across the word paper clips.  It was founded by the Norwegians during  WWII.  A symbol  that they used for peace, so that they wouldn't  get involved  with the war.

 We have  not finished  watching  the movie, God willing  when we return  from our  break, we will finish it. 

 If you have not yet  RSVP to Allison  for our tour to the Holocaust Museum on March  1, 2016 , please do so. 

 Have a fun and safe break  and Shabbat  Shalom!  😃
