This is a 2 hour self-contained workbook with information and tasks – ideal for cover.
This workbook has been created following HET guidance, with a focus on factual recall of the Holocaust, rather than emotive tasks.
It includes clear, age-appropriate explanations, survivor testimony, and structured activities to help students develop historical understanding. Tasks are varied and accessible, including comprehension questions, timelines, source analysis, and a final reflection activity — all designed to build knowledge without relying on emotional engagement.
The workbook builds towards the key question: “How did the Holocaust happen, and what can we learn from it today?”
This overarching enquiry encourages critical thinking, contextual understanding, and meaningful reflection.
Suitable for non-specialists, this resource requires no prior knowledge to deliver. Ideal for KS3 or KS4 students, particularly for cover lessons or as part of a wider scheme on the Holocaust, genocide studies, or human rights.
- Printable and editable
-No prep needed
