Holocaust
5 January, 2008 - 21:09 — meehanmHi, I am new to this but thought you all could help me out. I teach a mutlimedia unit on the Holocaust in Language Arts grade 8. I am looking to make this more dynamic by inviting others to join our class. I use a room through nicnet.org ( free and terrific for those interesting in linking computers for writing). I wanted to try a reading circle group using Holocaust literature and students from other schools. Each book is pretty short 100-180 pages and are set up for lots of discussions. I have alist of titles and would share with any interested.
