Students were engaged and appeared to understand that these are all major infractions of human rights in our history.
"The presentation was cool, it inspired me to change the World"
"Both the holocaust and bullying are the same: they are rooted in hatred" Jaxen Lehr
"The presentation was educational"
"I was surprised that one solitary person: Hitler had enough power to persuade hatred in so many others"
"I want people to understand that acceptance of all people is necessary" Madison Matchett
"Inspiring. I want to make a difference in the world I live in"
"I was surprised to hear that Canada had such a big part in what happened to the Jews"
"I may be only one Canadian girl; but I know I can make change" Bronwyn Scott-Anthony
"After this presentation, I made a connection to what is currently happening with Isis and the Syrian Crisis. Isis is like Hitler and The Syrians are like the Jews. We should learn from our mistakes and make sure we get it right this time" Keigan Johnston-Marshall
*****My students amazed me with their deep reasoning of these topics. They continue to inspire me that people are intrinsically good hearted and well intentioned. I cant wait for this group to enter the world and change it the way I know they CAN!!!******
