Hi all!
Our WBW topic today was WWII. Most VRPs knew at least something about WWII but learnt a lot more today. We had a quick look at the wide range of reasons that WWII started and then looked at Hitler’s Final Solution.
The reflection questions tonight focus on the values behind actions rather than remembering facts.
- Why might the German people have stood by while the Nazis killed millions of innocent people? OR
- Link our school values to the behaviour of someone like Oskar Schindler.
Here’s a screenshot of the answergarden.ch word cloud that the VRPs created during our discussion.
Mrs RP.
I have always struggled other nations’ political and social policy of appeasement at the time. (Another topic for MrsRP to discuss in class…hehehe)
Mrss.RP when we did this subject i learnt more about world war two and how cruel some people were.
War is a very cruel ‘concept’ isn’t it Niki? With all of the unrest in Iraq at the moment I’m quite worried that we may be heading toward another world war.
