The Devil

In sixth grade we started to learn about the holocaust. The Holocaust was a very terrible time for America. We had a hidden person named, Maud Dahme from the Holocaust come to tell us about it and I will tell you a quote which is my favorite one "If you don't remember your name you will be killed because they have a record of everything." what I really noticed is how terrible it was. I think that we should learn about the holocaust because when we learn about it you need to be mature, another reason is to avoid prejudice, and so it doesnt happen again.

One reason is that we are mature enough to learn about the terror. A long time ago we read a book Number the Stars it was a book where a girl hid from the Germans. Yesterday we heard a person talk from the Holocaust. Another reason is that it is a part of history. That can help us because we want to tell our friends if they never learned about it. Another reason is that life will not treat us always fair. Lastly it will help us decide right from wrong. Going onto my next topic.

Another reason is to for avoid prejudice and that may stop bullying. Prejudice is the judging of a person by first or second encounter this can be very dangerous and can hurt many people in extreme cases like the Holocaust. Prejudice is still going on in everyday life. Adolf Hitler decided that Jew's were nothing, they were just a weak pile of trash. So he needed to choose the Jew's for killing. He just had to have his "perfect world". The bullies were the Nazis It can remind us about Rachel challenge and to not judge peopleIf you don't know about Rachel challenge it was a terrible thing that happened to her and she is a very nice person that did a lot of things I'm going to give you a good example. She went to help a person in the street which can be dangerous. That can help you in life in a lot of things. Now I am going to be going onto my last supporting paragraph.

Last reason is that so it doesn't happen again. A reason is that people know it is a bad thing so it wont happen again. Another reason is that it will let the world know about the terrible thing that happened in the us. I think a lot of people would be shocked. If we learn about it we will not grow up to be bad people.If we do not teach our kids this stuff they could start things like World Wars and that would be terrible That is why I think the holocaust is a terrible thing that happened.

Even though some people might think it is very violent. I think sixth grader should learn about the Holocaust so we can pass it on. It will teach us the tragedy. Some people think we are too young to learn about it some people may be some may not but I sm looking forward to learning more about it. That is why I think we should learn about it.
