Dear Wendy: We can recommend a collection of Holocaust related lesson plans which use archival source documents – and which were recently developed using LBI’s 1938Projekt (LBI = Leo Baeck Institute in NY):
* Here are several lesson plans for downloading: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.lbi.org/1938projekt/education/__;!!KGKeukY!njOrqz-yNdMX1HOKxtR0sFClfWyK6ZejUaBt2tJ7eTaZIBDvc9MAtgd4mVJY8S2PPRs$ * Here is some background information about a teachers’ workshop in January/February 2020 (yes, still in-person during the good old times …..) at our institute, initiated and funded by the METRO NY Library Council - during which 11 of these lesson plans for middle and high schools were developed: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.lbi.org/projects/1938projekt-lesson-plans/__;!!KGKeukY!njOrqz-yNdMX1HOKxtR0sFClfWyK6ZejUaBt2tJ7eTaZIBDvc9MAtgd4mVJYeyJbAoI$ (and these 11 lesson plans are also featured in the image carousel with downloading options) * Here is our 1938Projekt calendar: throughout 2018 we featured one document per day from our archives and other sources related to the fateful year 1938 – with background & timeline info and link(s) to the archival sources https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.lbi.org/1938projekt/__;!!KGKeukY!njOrqz-yNdMX1HOKxtR0sFClfWyK6ZejUaBt2tJ7eTaZIBDvc9MAtgd4mVJY4YqrL7Q$ The aforementioned NY Educators used the 1938Projekt calendar as their starting points for writing lesson plans. * Upcoming and maybe of interest as well: on January 24, 2021 LBI will host a virtual (Zoom) event together with the USHMM and educators involved in the LBI/METRO NY lesson plan project about “1938Projekt: Developing Holocaust Curriculum in a Challenging Environment” https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.lbi.org/events/1938projekt-developing-holocaust-curriculum-challenging-environment/__;!!KGKeukY!njOrqz-yNdMX1HOKxtR0sFClfWyK6ZejUaBt2tJ7eTaZIBDvc9MAtgd4mVJYjcAofZg$ Very best regards & all the best for 2021 to all of us ….
