HW Mr. Padilla 1/5/16

Homework:

Parents/guardians please assist your child with today’s homework.

Option 1: Read this quote from night and answer the question below:

“Man comes closer to God through the questions he asks Him, he liked to say. ..Man asks and God replies. But we don't understand His replies. We cannot understand them. …The real answers, Eliezer, you will find only within yourself.”

Task: Do you agree with Eliezer’s father, that the answers to questions we do not understand we can only find within ourselves? Explain why or why not.

Option 2: Today we read and discussed what happened to the Jew deportees when they arrived. You read how the gestapo treated them. Pretend your job is to draw for a newspaper and they ask you to draw something for the cover: What would you draw?  What would be the headline?

Option 3:
The train with the deportees had crossed the Hungarian border and…had been taken over by the Gestapo. …The Jews were ordered to get off…The trucks headed toward a forest. There every- body was ordered to get out. They were forced to dig huge trenches. When they had finished their work, the men from the Gestapo began …shot their prisoners…. used as targets for the machine guns.

1.     What does deportees mean?
2.     Where were the Jews taken to?
3.     What did the Gestapo force everyone to do when they got off the train?
