German dominated areas of Europe in 1942, one year before the setting of Number the Stars. This will give students a visualization of the areas around Denmark that have been taken over by Hitler and the Nazis during WWII. They can also see where Sweden is in relation to Denmark, and imagine how the Jewish survivors made it across the sea to safety and freedom.

Hi Shannon!

Your lesson plan number 4 is strong because the activity seems to be very engaging. I really liked how you gave directions both orally and in written form as the students will be able to look at them again. I also really like your hinge activities because having a map can provide students with a great visual of WW2. I love how you script your questions out!

Hey Shannon! Great lesson plans and hinge activities! I loved your lesson #4 and the character analysis brochure! I thought it was a very fun and engaging lesson. I was a little confused with lesson 3 and the objective. I think it was a little vague and would suggest being more specific! Otherwise great work!

I found lesson 2 so interesting because I never noticed there was a parallel between the two stories! I'm so glad you used geography to show students where and what their learning about. Your character analysis brochure template was awesome! I haven't seen one like that before and I would like to steal it!
