Task #15 --------Holocaust Art and Literature
Art and literature helped document what happened during the Holocaust and gave the victims a voice so the rest of the world will not forget. Your final assignment is to take a look at some of the art and poetry created by adults and children in concentration camps.

1. Look at the art work of Yehuda Bacon and Waldemar Nowakowski. Pick one picture from either artist, copy it and paste it into a Microsoft Word document. Mrs. VanStee can help you do this if you do not know how. Below the picture, in your own words, tell how it makes you feel. What is the author trying to say?

2. Go to the poetry site and pick one poem. Copy one verse like you did with question #1 Using the same sheet of paper as you did for question #1, paste the verse. Below the verse explain in your own words how this poem makes you feel. When you are finished get permission from your teacher or Mrs. VanStee to print this out.
