A powerpoint and worksheet (easy version and hard version) to accompany a lesson(s) watching the PG rated film 'Sophie Scholl: die letzten Tagen. I have taught this to year 9s and 10s, and they were very engaged. This film is a good way to investigate life in Germany during the Nazi era and have an in-depth discussion with your class about it (they will have felt that this is taboo up until you do a lesson like this with them!). Hopefully some students will find Sophie’s actions in the resistance inspirational :) I am sharing this for free, however if you are able to make a donation, here’s the link to buy me a coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/susierb
