but also in relation to current events. Featuring stories from
middle, high school, and university classrooms across the United
States, this collection offers a comprehensive argument for the
inclusion of purposeful Holocaust pedagogy rooted in literacy
practices and historic content. Each narrative addresses the
reasons that teachers engage students in deep, emotional, and
challenging inquiry; the struggles they encounter when broaching
difficult content from the past and present; and what can happen
when students have opportunities to raise their voices about issues
of inequality, persecution, and remembrance. Grounded in the
experiences and voices of classroom teachers who are actively
navigating the challenges of teaching about the Holocaust, this
book will help readers to teach a specific set of historic events
while helping students address broader questions about responding
to injustice.Book Features: Experienced educators share how they
conceive of Holocaust education as based in writing and inquiry.
Materials such as lesson seeds and activity ideas to illuminate the
narratives of teacher and student effort. Reflections on how
professional development helps guide teacher growth and success.
Examinations of the ways professional organizations and networks
can support teachers grappling with challenging content.
