Refugees’ Blues and Poetry of the Holocaust
Poetry can be used as a powerful tool to teach about the Holocaust, connecting students to the human experience of survivors and victims and providing new perspectives. In this webinar, tailored to ELA teachers as well as the broader teaching community, educational developer and researcher Orit Margaliot will show you how to use poetry written before, during, and after the Holocaust as an educational resource. We will discuss questions of choice, historical and artistic connections, as well as pedagogy and appropriate writing assignments.
