A paper clip represents a person that died when the holocaust started. We saw movie called paper clips. Kids collected paper clips to represent the people that died on the holocaust. And butterflies are meant to show freedom.  Jose

Dear Global Dreamers,
We are learning about the holocaust. Mr. Glass found a movie about the holocaust and kids used paper clips to represent all 6 million people that        died. People sent in paper clips of each family member that died. They raised 27 million paper clips! They had holocaust survivors visit their            school. They found a rail cart that carried people    to the concentration camps. They brought the cart to the school and filled it with paper clips. They put butterflies on the sidewalk to show that           butterflies are free. I can’t believe how people during the holocaust felt.

Dear global dreamers
We just now watched a movie called paper clips and it teaches you about the holocausts   
And you will see some people whose family’s have died and you see other     people who haven’t ever seen or met there grandparents and you will see a box cart that had one hundred people in it and the box cart couldn’t fit a one hundred people in it and then when that box cart door shut a lot of people suffocated and died because they couldn’t breath.

Dear Global Dreamers,

We just watched a video called paper clips that told us facts about the Holocaust. A school in Tennessee collected paper clips and put them in a railcar. The railcar took people to concentration camps, now it holds the paper clips that they collected.

Dear Globaldreamers,
We presently watched a video about students in Tennessee learning about the Holocaust and collected paperclip representing the people that died.  It touched my heart.

Dear Global Dreamers,

I saw in the movie Paper Clips.  Kids in a Tennessee school had gotten over 29 million paper clips for the holocaust.  The clips represented people that had died of starvation and had suffocated in trains.  Many more were killed in the death camps. Now that’s a lot of paper clips for those people that died of those things.  It is terrible that they were killed.

Dear Globaldreamer,
We watched this movie it is called Paper Clips and the students in a class collect over 6 million paper clips.  The paper clips represent each Jewish man, woman, boy, and girl who were killed in the Holocaust.
