Why do some commit genocide and others risk their lives to prevent it?
‘Being Human?’ a free workshop in Preston at the Lancashire Conservation Studios on St Mary’s Street (near the Museum of Lancashire on Stanley Street) on Thursday 16th June.
The workshop will explore how you can make these challenging questions accessible to young people in your classroom.
- effective classroom approaches
- free teaching and learning resources
- food and wine reception
Even before they begin to study the Holocaust many pupils have well formed (but largely inaccurate) ideas about how it happened: strongly-held beliefs about the kinds of people who killed, those who ‘stood-by’, and those who tried to help. This practical workshop models powerful teaching resources that:
- engage your pupils, emotionally and intellectually
- challenge their thinking
- deepen their historical understanding
- raise profound questions about the world and about human behaviour
- help make your SMSC outstanding
Programme:
- 3:45 – Registration & Reception (Food & Drink)
- 4:00 – ‘Being human?’ workshop
- 6:15 – Close
Workshop led by
