Holocaust L11 - Who is Responsible for the Holocaust?

This lesson contains:

• A starter that asks students to study a source image of Jews cleaning the streets. they are asked analytical questions about it and will return to the image later.
• An overview of the key words for the lesson, which are ‘perpetrators’, ‘collaborators’, ‘bystanders’ and ‘resisters’. There is then a chance for students to make notes on each as you go through the next 4 slides with images.
• A task to return to the source and judge who they believe in the picture fall into each of the categories. The extension is to consider why it’s sometimes hard to decide on the difference between those doing and those collaborating.
• A colour-coding activity to look at a series of scenarios and judge what category of guilt they are to be placed in.
• An extension of this task to then map the numbers of each scenario on a plot graph to note the impact of each and the level of ‘active’ or ‘non active’ each scenario showed. this can lead to greater analysis of the consequences of different peoples’ actions.
• A review of the learning.
