Final Thoughts


I thought the end of book was good I really liked how Elie stayed strong when it was like close  for all the Jews to be free. Like when  they was marching from one camp to other Elie stayed strong and tried to keep his dad to stay strong but i didn't like how the dad just gave up hope when it was 2 month before they got out. Know he was tried and weak but he could have try best  to  keep going. I learn a lot about the Holocaust  when I got done with the book  about the dehumanizing step the Jews had to go though.

        I also learn about all of the bystanders in the novel and how they didn´t help them.This project is good for us because we learn about  our history so we and other don to go through it again. Also so you can learn more on the world background and the German and Hitler and his Nazis party. One other thing to learn is how they pulled all this off without one person saying this wrong to do to this people they are normal just like you or me. I thought this project was good thing to learn about  overall because you get find out new things and learn about you already knew.

    Keithan,
    Thanks for your thoughts on this. What i'm taking away from what you said is: You found out how important it is say what you think and feel, and blogging is one good way to do it. The other thing I'm taking away is your commitment to be an upstander, not a bystander. I hope you don't have to upstand against anything as awful as Nazi persecution, but I think if you keep your eyes and ears open, there is plenty to upsatand for. Thank you for sharing your thinking with me.

    I've never read this story before, but it looks like it can be a interesting one to read and that way I can learn about the Holocaust even more. I liked the way you explained on how this project helped you and the things you learned by reading and doing this project. This book looks like a good one because like you said in the ending it says that Elie didn't give hope and I think that's what everyone should do in general. They shouldn't give up in things or lose hope. I can connect to that part of the story with a book I read that was also about the Holocaust. The girl had hope to see her crush again somewhere in Chicago. The girl also had that hope to see her parents once again since she was in Chicago and they where in Germany.
