We also took some time to discuss and prepare for our upcoming trip to the Holocaust Memorial Museum. We are eagerly anticipating our discussion with a Holocaust survivor at the museum.
Dear 7th Grade Parents,
This week we had an awesome time celebrating Purim together! We made mishloach manot to give to friends, made parcels for the poor, listened to the Megillah and enjoyed all sorts of treats. We certainly enjoyed socializing together as well!
We also took some time to discuss and prepare for our upcoming trip to the Holocaust Memorial Museum. We are eagerly anticipating our discussion with a Holocaust survivor at the museum.
On Tuesday, we learned about various Jewish resistance attempts and learned about specific instances of righteous gentiles risking their lives to save Jews during the Holocaust. We also learned the history behind the liberation of the camps, and we read firsthand accounts from Allied soldiers about their first encounters with the extermination camps.
Please let us know if your child has any particular concerns or questions that you would like us to address.
Best,
Morah Hollenberg and Moreh Fidel
