1. very few children survived out of the 10,000 jewish children that endured that period of time 2. some jew children were sent to london and they found it very hard to adjust, sent to london orphanages 3. nazis came for jews unexpectedly, the explination came after they were in prison or dead
I read two books, actually. I read "The Number on my Grandfather's Arm" by David A. Adler and "Hidden Children of the Holocaust" by Esther Kustanowitz. From Grandfather's Arm: 1. Many Jewish people had serial numbers tatooed on their forearms. 2. Lots of these people choose to hide their tattoo 3. The tattoo usually brings back many sad, sad memories.
From Hidden Children: 1. Many kids were forced to hide during the Holocaust with the help of non-Jewish people. 2. Some spent the entire War in small compartments living off scraps...and survived. 3. There were many Catholic churches and Priests that participated in hiding the Jewish runaways.
1. Esther became a polish soldier 2. Henryk Goldsmit helped many orphans thoughout his life 3. He was sent to jail twice for refusing to wear an armband
Title: Teen Witnesses to the Holocaust Author: Sandra Giddens *Jewish Women had to add Sarah to their name to show they were Jewish *Kindertransports were special transports of Jewish Children to England *937 Jews boarded the S.S. St Louis but neither Cuba, the U.S., or Canada let them dock
Memories of Survival by Esther Nisenthal Krintz and bernice steinhardt 1 I found out how hard it was to stay away from the gestapo. 2 I learned that the families were separated during the war because they all had to do different things for there age group to stay out of camps. 3I learned that the prisoners wanted to come to America because they knew it as a place of freedom.
World War I: 1.Spying was one of the most dangerous positions in world war two. 2.Until Russia entered the war against the Nazis England were the only country fighting the Nazis. 3.A spy from WWII was the inspiration for James Bond.
- If a Jew couldn't take care of his or her child, the child would be sent to an orphanage. The child would be sent to an orphanage if the child's parents couldn't pay rent or wanted to keep the child safe.
-Jewish children sometimes ratted out their other friends who were Jewish. Sometimes German officers would let their Jewish friends leave the Ghetto and they would let them sneak away to be free.
-People in the Ghetto could actually leave and take a trip outside the walls. The only way they could leave was with a permit. It was very hard to get a permit.
I read the book In the Camps by Toby Axelrod. In the Camps is a book about four teens in the holocaust and their experiences. The three most important things that I learned were: 1) Kristallnaucht means "the night of broken glass." It was the night that all of the Jews were first captured. 2)If the Jews were given a silver bowl when they arrived at the camps, they were guaranteed a better chance at life. If you were unlucky, and did not get a bowl, then you would have a much harder time trying to survive. 3)Some Jews would do anything just for food. One Jewish boy was sent to take care of the horses at Auschwitz everyday. Sometimes, this boy would eat some of the horse food: dried sugar beets. This book was highly informative and I enjoyed reading it.
Title: Holocaust "Inferno" Author: Elanor H. Ayer . During the war there were 6 major death camps with Auschwitz being the biggest and killing the most people .Dr.Mengele performed gruesome experiments on twins to see if when one is inflicted with pain if the other one would feel it .At the Auschwitz if you tried to over rule the soldiers you were thrown into the ovens while you were still alive
"The Hitler Youth, Marching Toward Madness" Alexa Dvorson
- Children joined the Hitler youth to play games, make friends and just have something to do! - Athletics were very important in the Hitler Youth, almost sacred. They were important because they wanted boy's bodies ready to fight and girl's bodies ready to have babies. - The teaching of antisemitism was included in school as though part of the curriculum. It was naturally taught alongside mathematics and grahamer.
The book that I read was The Hidden Children of the Holocaust by Esther Kustanowitz. 1. Many children had to hide during the Holocaust due to being Jewish. 2. Christian people risked their own lives to protect these children. 3. Some of these children spent the whole war in a small, cramped place and in fear. Some survived this by luck, while others were found out and sent to concentration camps, where they later died.
I read the book My secret Camera written by Frank Dabba Smith and Photographs by Mendel Grossman. I learned that they put kids to work. They tied these kids to a wagon ,like they do to horses, and made them pull it. Another thing I learned was that they had cameras back then. I thought they had cameras but not really small ones that people can hide under there shirt. Finally I learned that thousands of people were shipped into the ghetto and thousands were shipped out. When they were shipped out they didn't come back which meant that they were killed.
I read "Children of Slaughter". This book was by Ted Gottfried. I learned that over 1.5 million kids were slaughtered during the Holocaust. I also learned that the kids in Hitler's youth were trained to be street brawlers. They were trained to beat up Jews. I also learned that even generations after the war, the Jews still felt anger and depression. They had a fear that something like this would happen again.
"In The Camps; teens who survived the Nazi Concentration Camps" Toby Axelrod
Fax detail was the the worst job to have when at the camps. Nazis made Jews catch heavy bundles of fax dropped from freight cars and be passed down a line. their arms became swollen, bruised and bloody.
2,OOO girls where sent on a march, only 120 girls lived.
if you tried to escape and the Nazis caught you, then you were brought back and brutally beaten to death in front of the whole camp.
The book I read was Fireflies in the Dark, by Susan Goldman Rubin. 1- That the most important things in life aren't things at all. The woman in the story didn't bring things for herself to the concentration camp, she brought things to teach the children, like stories and art supplies. 2- That the arts saved people during the Holocaust. The children painted, acted, and read to escape to another story. It kept them sane. 3- Auschwitz was created because their were too many people at Terezin (a work camp), so they had to get rid of some in a death camp.
The book Holocaust: From The Ashes was very interesting. 1. In November of 1945, 21 Nazi leaders were taken to Nuremburg, Germany for Internation Military Tribunal. 2. Before, during and after the war, Jews were fleeing to Palestine, to hide from Hitler, and live a better life. 3. From Hitler's rise (1933) to 1939 (WWII breakout) over 200,000 Jews had fled to Palestine. By 1940 over 400,000 Jews had fled.
In the book "Holocaust Inferno" by Eleanor H. Ayer there were many important things that happened some of them were these. 1. There were resistance groups that tried with their life to slow down the nazis. 2. Most people think of the ghettos not as bad as the concentration camp, but really they were just as bad. 3. I thought that a crazy fact about the holocaust is that about 2.9million polish jews died but only 7 finish jews died.
"Surviving Hitler" by Andrea Warren -Only 17 out of the 55 million killed during WWII were soldiers, all the others were civilians. -It is estimated that up to 100,000 Jewish children went into hiding during WWII. -To keep the allies from freeing the prisoners of the Nazis; They were forced to go on death marches and most died on the march or in the train cars. The Nazis did this to try to keep what they did in the concentration camps secret.
I read Nazi Olympics by Susan D. Bachrach 1) Nazi Germany hosted the 1936 Olympics. 2) Although Hitler hated the Olympics he still gave them 8,000,000 dollars so that they had the proper equitment for the hosting. 3) Since Hitler did not like Jews, all of the athletic ones had to move to england to play their sports.

ReplyDelete1) 6 million- 9 million Jewish people were killed
2) Nazis plan was to eradicate all of the Jewish people in Europe
3) The SS would come through Ghettos and randomly kill children, adults, and the elderly
4) On January 9, 1943 the ZOB or Jewish Fighting Force fought back against the Nazis
