Recently, we read the captivating narrative of White Bird by R.J. Palacio as part of a unit study focusing on the following essential question, To what extent do tragedy, trauma, and adversity build resilience? After reading the graphic novel, my students embarked on a research project to connect with a Holocaust survivor. With the help of our amazing librarians, we learned how to use Noodle Tools and our school databases. Empowered by newfound knowledge, students designed a newspaper to showcase the Holocaust survivors using Canva. Last week, we showcased all the newspapers during an interactive Gallery Walk in our classroom where students gave each other feedback in the form of “Grows” and “Glows”. We hope you enjoy reading and learning about some of the survivors.
