A good starter that will provoke excellent discussions, however 18 minutes is very long for a starter.

Just to clarify on ChezzaC's comment. This film is made up of 6 short films, not a single starter of 18 minutes. Each single film lasts only a few mintues. There are lesson plans below the film to link with each section.

Great home movies from the 1930's and personal stories told through intervies to spark discussion on the Holocaust

Chilling short movies from Germany about survivors and those who were murdered. As an additional resource, teachers may want their classes to listen to my song "6,000,000," or read its lyric sheet as a poem. A lesson plan for the song is also included. These resources are available under my name, Hank Fellows, on the "Share My Lesson" website.
