Reading Class and the Holocaust

We've learned so much in the last four weeks about the Holocaust.  If the grades for the test over the novel Devil's Arithmetic are any indication, everyone has a much better understanding of this horrific time in history. 
We are beginning our next novel, Night, by Elie Wiesel, winner of the Nobel Peace Prize.  We'll be using an audio version of the book as well as our paperbacks so everyone can follow along as we read.
Go to the USC Shoah link to view 52,000 video testimonies of Holocaust survivors and other witnesses!
