Holocaust: The Final Solution

For teaching 11-14s Holocaust

This lesson looks at 'What was the Final Solution?'

Students will start by looking at the Wannsee Conference and the concentrations camps. Students will look in depth at Auschwitz and Dachau using a variety of tasks (videos and sources).

Students will aim to answer the following question: Explain in what ways the ‘final solution’ was different from the way the Nazi’s treated the Jews between 1933-1941.

The lesson finishes by looking at the liberation of Auschwitz.

This lesson is differentiated for all students in your class, and includes all resources needed.
