Field trip

The Illinois Holocaust museum was a good field trip. I learned many things like the Einsatzgruppen and how they murdered the Jews. Also I learned about the neo-Nazis and how there outcome was. Especially at the end of the field trip we heard a survivor speaking and how he lost his family in the Holocaust. In middle school I remember going to the Chinese acrobatics it was so much fun. People would balance on chairs over 20 feet and if they would fall there career would be over. One field trip i would like to is the World war 2 museum it will make us learn more about the outcome of what happened. Field trips are important to your education because they can make students know more if they would be having a test on it, it wouldn't be hard for them. Also, it would persuade them to having a better education or what they want to be in the future.

August 27, 1942

Dear diary,

I arrived at Auschwitz and I've been to sent to a concentration camp. I was separated from my parents from the Nazis. August 29, 1942 I feel the impact of the people that are working like me. A young boy like me are assigned to work together to clean the barracks. September 1, 1942 we decide to flee. 

September 5, 1942 we flee by foot and we arrive in France. Frank then saw his parents and quickly ran to them. The joy was happiness. I wish I had that in my life. Then Frank and his parents and I fled to america where it was safe. September 11, 1942, we arrive, Frank decides to leave me by myself in the darkness. September 13, 1942 we never saw each other again.

Daniels story

“We must live, and when this is all over, we must work to make the world a better place.  And if we die, we will die knowing that it was not our fault, that we did our best, and we can go to our deaths in dignity… I want you both to live…And to remember...You must choose love.  Always choose love.” 

 (from Daniel’s Story by Carol Matas, page 70)

A book that I've read that relates to this is what my Girlfriend doesn't know. This is when Robin and Sophie choose love and they had dignity in each other.
