Controversial History Textbook | The Sadness of Prejudice | Our Quest to Understand I.G.K. [Ivan Goran Kovacic School], teacher Rosalija Baricevic, Slavonski Brod, Croatia Never give up Lesson (Feeback from Miri and Feinstein School Petach Tikva.) I love the song because ts shows us that many people care about what happened to the Jewish people and not only Jewish people care about and express their hope through songs and poems. The learning activity was enjoyable and extremely important for us. We identify with the
pain in this poem and the poem is meaningful and important for the
Holocaust. 9th grade Class and Miri Porat their teacher Holocaust in Greek is called “Olokaftoma”. We have written a poem in our work-teams in Greek, in memory of the holocaust and we present you a selection of our work.
The Holocaust
Oh, why so many people died. All the people are moaning for the holocaust. May God have in peace the dead. What happened is very sad. What those people did to deserve this? Hitler was a very bad person. They kept them in prison and then they executed them. May God forgive the sins of the one who were lost. We will always remember them. So much blood was poured. What happened was wrong. This day we are all sad. This day is a rememberance day for all Jeus and the whole world. We are very sad. Ah, why so much pain? Ah, why?
May never a thing like this happen.
From the kids of E’2 class Frenaros Primary School Frenaros, Cyprus It

The activites and the work are excellent and the children and educators
had an unforgettable experience.

By the way, I have fifth graders who have no idea of what the Holocaust was, who Adolf Hitler was and had never heard of a Nazi before. Hard to believe, but I guess it seems like ancient history to them.
Brian Fahey, Wilminigton Friends School, Wilmington, Deleware USA The activities are great. I have had a number of students look at them as well and read some of the poems and stories. My students have been greatly impacted by the stories, in particular. Here are some thoughts from the students in Mr. Jede's grade 5 class: I feel that what the Germans did in the war was horrible. The concentration
camps were the worst things that could ever happen. I don’t know
why anyone would do anything like that. It’s in human! I never want
that to ever happen again It’s cruel and Jews shouldn’t be treated
like that what so ever! Not only Jews but anyone who was hiding them
or doing other things like that to keep them safe and to try not
to let the Germans get them and kill them at the concentration camps
it’s just HORRIBLE! I was very sad to hear about how people are sometimes discriminated
against. Our teacher, Mr. Jede , read us a story called From Anna.
In this story the family had to flee Germany because of the ways
that Jews were being treated. I pray that nothing like this will
ever happen again to anyone. The way that people treat others sometimes is horrible. We have
been learning about tolerance and celebrating the differences amongst
others in our school. After hearing about some of the stories as
told by holocaust survivors, I have committed myself to stand up
against these forms of discrimination. It has been very difficult for me to read about some of the awful things that happened during the holocaust. My heart feels very sad for all of the people that lost family members, friends and other loved ones. I pray that nothing like this will ever happen again.
