Yesterday I covered for four hours in 5th Grade. Early on a pupil said something along the line of Germans = Nazis. The lesson plan changed. The question became, "Why did the Nazis rise in Germany?" It started, briefly, with Egypt, Babylon, Persia and Greece (which they've been studying). Then Rome and this... (see blackboard).
Only halfway through did a pupil point out that it was #HolocaustMemorialDay
#Waldorf #Education #EduToot
#Germany #Israel #Palestine

Shabbat shalom

(Along the way the kids each became a European country and split into two blocks of allies, which declared war like falling dominoes in 1914.)
