The Holocaust Explained

The Holocaust Explained website educates children about the Holocaust and is designed to support the school curriculum; helping students with their school work, both in school and at home.

The site has images (pictures, maps, videos, diagrams) to help explain concepts and events. There is text to describe the historical events and 'reflective learning activities' to enhance students' understanding of the issues and concepts.

Children can learn about the development of Adolf Hitler's ideas from their beginning to the Final Solution. Find out how and why the Nazi dictatorship built ghettos, concentration camps and eventually extermination camps like Auschwitz.

Students can also find out about heroes of the Holocaust, such as Anne Frank as well as see and hear the remarkable human experiences of Holocaust Survivors. They can learn the lessons that can help us to prevent future acts of genocide.
