They could also be used as homework, with guided groups, or with book groups. Small groups could be working on different activities at the same time. The book can be read aloud and selected activities done in class. They could be useful laminated and in a literacy center. It is always a better learning experience if books are discussed in pairs or in groups, in my opinion. Pairs or groups of students can also complete more complex activities. Many of these activities can be done using some of the Kagan Structures. Students can travel around the classroom to 3 or 4 stations answering questions about the book. The questions can be glued to butcher paper. Each station should have enough squares for all of the class to record their answer. The questions or activities can be posted on the paper or on the wall. Students must support their answers with proof from the book. Many of the Kagan Structures could be used with this product. This product contains the following activities: Internet sites of interest for teachers Computer vocabulary practice with Quizlet Crown for vocabulary game Vocabulary Map Vocabulary and definition cards – there are five words on each page. There is the word and the definition next to it. These could be laminated and cut apart to study or play a matching game.

Randall Smith: A society not schooled in the logic and complexities of making well-supported moral judgments will soon be incapable of making any judgments at all.
The Night of Broken Glass (Kristallnacht) educational guide allows you to learn more about the pogrom of November 9 and 10, 1938.
Born in Bucharest, Romania after World War One to a poor Jewish family, exposed to the virulence of pre-World War Two Romanian antisemitism, Baruch Cohen experienced directly the advent of fascist antisemitism in the pogrom he terms the Bucharest \"Night of Broken Glass\" in January 1941. Impressed into forced labor in a work camp, aware of and evading the death camps set up in occupied Transnistria, Baruch survived the Holocaust and left Communist Romania for Israel with his family. After several years there, they came to Montreal, Canada in 1959. Upon his retirement in 1988, Cohen did graduate work in Jewish history, became Research Chair in the Canadian Institute for Jewish Research, and made it his life's challenge to bear witness for the millions of Jews who suffered and died in the Holocaust. This memoir not only tells one person's remarkable story, but also shows how one courageous and persistent person--by researching, teaching, and bearing witness--can be a model for the fight against antisemitism and Holocaust denial today.
