Teaching Impactful Lessons From the Holocaust
The Signature Education Model is designed to facilitate the teaching of lessons from the Holocaust for educators. This management system offers a comprehensive set of teaching tools and resources, equipping teachers with everything they need to convey grade-appropriate lessons about the Holocaust.
Tailored to grades 5-12 and accessible to all school districts nationwide, the Signature Education Model helps educators make a positive change in children through these impactful lessons from the Holocaust.
Powerful teaching tools and resources like Holocaust survivor testimonies, historically accurate Holocaust footage, and mini-documentary lessons facilitate the impactful lessons from the Holocaust.
Teachers Don’t Need to be Experts on the Holocaust
Despite Holocaust education being mandated by states across America, many teachers lack proper training in this area. As a result, conveying these complex lessons to elementary, middle, and high school students can be challenging.
Educators can now use the collection of tools, videos, and teaching resources offered by the Signature Education Model to deliver high-quality lessons from the Holocaust, regardless of their expertise in the subject. With accurate historical footage, Holocaust survivor testimonies, and documentary-style lessons, teachers can confidently educate their students on meaningful lessons learned from the Holocaust.
