Perfect for as either an English or a Citizenship scheme, this Holocaust scheme aim to build students' key reading and writing skills through the teaching of one of the most important and poignant worldwide historical events: The Holocaust. Using a range of age-appropriate and sensitive Holocaust Literature, this scheme also enables students to explore a range of important social and moral issues. Engaging, differentiated, and easily adaptable, each of these lessons aims to improve students skills in writing for a key purpose (informing, describing, arguing, analysing) whilst also being incredibly engaging and interesting. Students also read and infer from a number of key extracts from texts, (provided) each with a different and important take on the subject matter. Each lesson follows a logical learning journey to ensure that students learn in bite-size steps: - Defining; - Identifying; - Analysing; - Creating; - Peer or self evaluating. All of the lessons are interactive, employ a variety of different teaching and learning methods and styles, and are visually-engaging. Resources, worksheets, and lesson plans are all provided.
