Description

We are offering a twelve-hour seminar on Teaching the Holocaust to teachers, administrators, and anyone interested in learning about the Holocaust. The State of Maine now mandates that schools teach the history of the Holocaust and genocide. The dramatic rise in antisemitism worldwide makes it more important than ever to bring these lessons into the classroom. This seminar will cover a wide variety of topics to help teachers understand not just the historic events, but the wider context that allowed it to happen. Participants will learn about resources available to them and new ways of teaching to engage students in the subject. July 11 and 12, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.In person at the Holocaust and Human Rights Center
