  2. Do Now: Quote Analysis pg 153 Dear Teacher, I am the survivor of a concentration camp. My eyes saw what no man should witness: Gas chambers build by learned engineers. Children poisoned by educated physicians Infants killed by trained nurses and women and babies shot and burned by high school graduates. So I am suspicious of education. My request is: Help your students to become more human. Your efforts must never produce learned monsters, skilled psychopaths, educated Eichmanns. Reading, writing and arithmetic are important only if they serve to make our children more human. - HaimGinott

  4. Notes page 155 “The Final Solution” • Nazis use euphemisms to mask the nature of their crimes. • Euphemism is more agreeable language that substitutes offensive or unpleasant words • Final Solution= code name for the systematic, deliberate, physical annihilation of the European Jews (estimated 11 million) • The plan came in many stages • Boycott Jewish, Kristallnacht, ghettos • Creation of concentration camps and death centers

  5. Notes page 155 Wannsee Conference • 1942- 15 Nazi leaders meet in suburb Wannsee outside of Berlin • Goal to coordinate a “Final Solution to the Jewish Question” • Plan logistics such as deportations to camps, how and when to eliminate

  6. page 156 Reading on the Final Solution • As you read, Think: How can murder be discussed without ever using the word? • Popcorn Reading Instructions • Underline words & phrases that use euphemisms for the destruction of the Jews • Raise your hand when you see one to share • HW: Read Quotes from Wannsee and annotate • Underline euphemisms • Answer this question and use evidence: How did the Nazis discuss the murder of the Jews without ever using the word “murder”
