The Task
Your task for the duration of this WebQuest is to discover what it was like to be at the mercy of the Nazi regime in the 1940s. You will assume the identity of an actual victim of the Holocaust from the identification cards that can be seen at the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and through their website at http://www.ushmm.org/remember/id-cards. Some of these people lived to tell their story and some did not. You will discover what life was like for people of the 1940s in Europe through research. This experience will mirror that of Hannah as she discovered what it was truly like for those who became the targets of Nazi cruelty.
