Holocaust+Timeline+Project

Holocaust Timeline Project (1)

** Description: ** For the opening project of this course you and your classmates will be developing a timeline depicting the persecution and anti-semtic treatment of the Jewish race/religion. You will begin in the year 500BCE and continue through 1945BCE. The timeline itself should contain descriptions and drawings depicting this persecution. You may use maps from the Internet but everything else should be your artistic representation. We will have three class periods to gather information and one class period to put it all together.

** Objectives: **  - Develop an understanding of anti-semtic beliefs around the world  - Comprehend the persecution of the Jewish race/religion  - Gain and understanding of why the Jews were persecuted during the Holocaust

** Assignment: ** Your job is to find 5 events for every century from the dates given. You may do more, but you may not do less. Describe the event and provide a logical explanation why you felt this event occurred. You must also provide an accurate (historical) reason for the event. Please remember to provide tasteful illustrations that depict the event. Accuracy and understanding is very important to your grade on this assignment. Artistically challenged students do not worry, I am not grading on your ability. Please use summarization skills to keep your writing to a minimum. Please document your findings. (reference)
