The 8th grade English students have been learning about The Holocaust through a variety of stories.
We have read The Diary of Anne Frank play, watched a show on Miep's story, listened to our class read aloud book, The Tattooist of Auschwitz, and now are starting on our literature circle books. Students were able to choose which book they'd like to read and then are to meet with their classmates once a week to discuss their chosen book.
