This worksheet was originally written for a series of AQA KS4 coursework lessons on how the ‘status’’ and ‘position’ of Jews changed in Europe 1880 - 1920. I have updated the resource and redesigned this lesson so it serves as an introduction to anti-Semitism in Weimar Germany.

The content of the lesson outlines the origins of anti-Semitism in Medieval and Reformation Germany and then focuses on its revival in 1880 and how it evolved as a result of the impact of the First World War and the crisis that Germany was facing in the early years of the Weimar Republic. The questions, graphic organiser and card sorts are all aimed to get students to analyse the sources and evaluate how the events impacted the ‘status’ and 'position of German Jews.

When you purchase this resource you will be able to download both a Word and PDF version of the worksheet and the supporting graphic organiser and card sort. This particular version is our budget version, for a bit more you can buy the fun and interactive PowerPoint that accompanies the lesson. This resource is suitable for KS4, but is frequently used by Sixth Form students studying the topic at A Level so we uploaded this version to make it more affordable. You can also download from the TES our free resources on anti-Semitism in France and Russia covering the same period and our ever popular 'Anti-Semitism in Germany 1919 - 1945 booklet.

Anti-Semtism in Europe 1880 - 1945

These resources look at the origins of anti-Semitism in Europe and how it evolved into the Final Solution. The key focus is on events in Russia, France and Germany, but is important to point out to your students that it was evident throughout Europe and the USA at this time. The resources that have been bundled together have all been field tested in the classroom and are amongst our most popular downloads from the History Academy where we aim to produce resources for the price of a good cup of coffee. If you would like to stay up to date then you can follow our pages on Facebook, Instagram and Your Tube. If you are new to teaching or studying this topic then its important to understand that anti-Semitism still exists and that the need to find scapegoats or someone to blame when things go wrong is one of the more nastier aspects of human nature and that falls to each generation to how this in check through education. The old biblical quote 'Evil is when a few good men decide to do nothing', is very relevant to studying this topic. The modern version of anti-Semitism that we in Europe at this time grew out of events in Russia. The country was struggling politically, economically and socially so the Russian Tsar's tried to redirect the Russian peoples attention onto blaming or 'scape goating ' the Jews. This led to attacks on the Russian Jews which in turn led their mass migration into Europe and the USA. The arrival of these refugees stirred up latent anti-Semtism which made it harder for the existing Jewish communities and turn both anti-Semitism and Zionism into political movements in Europe. These movements were fueled by the political, social, economic and military crisis that grew out of German Unification 1871, The First World War 1914 - 1918, the Treaty of Versailles and the the creation of the Weimar Republic in 1919. These events are covered in the resources that cover Russia, France and Germany 1880 to 1920. The booklet the 'Nazi attack on the Jews 1919 to 1945, cover the rise of the Nazi Party and the impact of the Great Depression and the Second World War 1939 - 1945. When teaching your students about anti-Semitism do not forget that Facism or Nazism was not limited to Germany. The SS drew their recruits from all across Europe. Anti-Semitism was not a 'German' problem, it was a European and American problem based upon the prevailing racism of the time. My Dutch grandmother always drew a distinction between the 'German Army' or the 'Wehrmacht' and the SS. She remembered seeing a Dutch member of the SS shoot an old lady who was trying to pass food and water to Dutch Jews who were being deported in the cattle cars. Kind Regards Roy
