https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k Why do the Leysons stay in Krakow after the Germans declare they want to “cleanse” the city of all Jews? Do you agree with this decision? Would you have done the same thing? Make sure to answer all 3 questions. YOU MUST WRITE YOUR FIRST NAME AND LAST INITIAL. en-us 2019-03-28 19:25:32 UTC 2019-04-27 18:07:11 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/346700419 1) The Leysons stayed, because there were rumours that Jews that left were being shot at the border. Even though it was a rumour, it could of been true, so they decided not to go. A minor reason they didn't go, was the that they, thought that their work statues might protect them. 
2) I agree with this decision, mainly because I wouldn't want to risk being shot. Especially, right when I thought that I might of be free from the  Germans. 
3) I would of done the same thing. I would of first waited to hear any news about it. Then if I heard that people escaped, I also would  leave the city. But, like in the book, if I heard negative news about the situation, I would of stayed like the Leysons. ]]> 2019-03-29 20:31:59 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/346700419 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347192460 A1) The Leysons stayed in Karkow because they did not want to be harmed by the Germans. The Germans threatened to kill the Jews if they were to leave Karkow. There were even rumors about how Jews did die beacuse they tried to leave.
A2) I do agree with the decision because I think it is more safe to stay then leave because if they leave they have of a more possibility to die and get shot. I would not want that for them any day.
A3) I would have stayed beacuse even though rumors may not be true they can be real. I would have a huge urge to leave  but, I would be confident and stay. I would stay with my family and friends so I have my mind off of the news. If my family and friends decide they want to go and leave Karkow, I would try my best to convince them to stay and inform them about the rumors.

2)I deeply agree with this decision because, I wouldn't want to try and leave while the Germans are going to kill em if I try to leave. And they are smart for doing that, they have a very high chance of death while escaping.
3)Like is said, I would stay for my safety. I don't want to be killed, even at this age, We don't stand a chance against a armed militia. And even some rumors are fake, I don't want to take a very high risk chance. I would have been smart about this and do what they Leysons did. Stay at home.]]> 2019-04-01 21:51:21 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347403859 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347585898 1) The Leysons stayed in Krakow because if they did not want to be harmed from the Germans.
2) I do agree because they did not want to be harmed by Germans if they tried to leave.
3) I would of left when I heard of the Germans coming. Also if I had family I would go back if they are in a safe place from Germans.]]> 2019-04-02 12:37:05 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347585898 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347695734 1) The Leysons stayed in Krakow because they heard of germans killing innocent Jews once they leave. These rumors worried them, so stay in Krakow seemed more logical.

2) I do agree with the Leysons because they would have gotten harmed by the Germans.

3) I would have left when they first came, but I would go into hiding in a safer place. ]]> 2019-04-02 20:20:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347826416 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347837241 1) The Leysons stayed in Krakow after the Germans declared they wanted to "cleanse" the city of Jews, because they knew they would be harmed if they left. They had heard rumors of people being murdered when they tried to leave. 

2) I agree with their decision because their lives would have been over if they tried to leave. Even though they got stuck at the concentration camps, they still had a tiny chance that they might make it out alive.

3) If I was in the same situation, I would have stayed as well, because a chance of survival is better than no survival at all. I wouldn't want to take the risk of dying at all. ]]> 2019-04-02 20:57:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347837241 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347838261 1. The Leysons stayed in Krakow because they knew that they would be in danger. They felt this way because the Germans threatened the Jews that they would kill them if they tried to leave. Also there were rumors of Jews that left Krakow dying.

2. I agree with the Leysons decision because if I were in that situation I would be so afraid of the Germans that I would just take their word for it and do what they say. I also wouldn't want to risk leaving when I would have the chance of living.

3. Like I said, I would stay because even if the rumors were not true I'd rather be safe than sorry. I especially wouldn't want to risk dying at my age because I haven't lived a full life yet.]]> 2019-04-02 21:01:30 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347838261 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347882956 2) I agree with Leysons decision to stay because they are being told that people are dying when they leave. Also they have a way of living since his dad works at one of the buildings in the main city. Which always they to be in the city of Krakow.
3) If I was put in the same position, I would move to another location because I don't know how to speak german and I would rather live a decent/not concentrated life. I would rather die, then be mistreated or hurt knowing that it won't end soon.]]> 2019-04-03 01:04:23 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/347882956 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348027597 The reason the family stayed there is because it was all a trick; the people left were sent to go to the concentration camps, and also the Leyson family has a living there, work and an apartment. I agree that they did this, as why would you want to work is a concentration camp, do you want to die? I would also do the same things as at least having a place to live and a small apartment in a city will be better than surviving by hard labor, and even after all the work in a camp, you still will feel hungry after your earnings of food.]]> 2019-04-03 12:29:27 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348027597 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348054652 1.    The reason the family stayed was because they thought there was something wrong. and they were right because the people that left were being sent to concentration camps.

2.      I agree with their decision to stay because a lot of people were being killed and shot at random so they should not go with the germans. 

3. If I was there I would have stayed to because I would want so be safe. I wouldn't want to be unsure and die. plus I could still try to use my fathers papers as protection. ]]> 2019-04-03 13:24:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348054652 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348059790 1. The reason they stayed was because they thought it would be like the last war where they would make the people work and then just give them back to their family. They didn't think the Nazis would be brutal.  They also knew that all ways out would soon be blocked by the Nazis.
2. I agree because they  don't know what would've happened in another part of the country and how the other Nazis would act.  I also agree because they would have probably died because they didn't have Shindler to protect them.
3.I would if I worked for Shindler but if I didn't work for him I would still stay because I know the town more.]]> 2019-04-03 13:34:18 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348059790 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348062496 1.The reason why they stayed because they didnt know how burtal the nazis were.
2.I agree with there decision because going to a certain death at a concentration camp is bad.
3.I would do the same thing because it would be better and safer then going to a concentration camp.]]> 2019-04-03 13:38:58 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348062496 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348079039 1. The reason that they stayed in Krakow is because it could have easily been a trap.
2.  I agree with the decision because he survived it. You can tell he survived it because he wrote the book. He also stayed with the closest family he had.
3. I would do the same thing because I would probably survive a little while longer and have more tine to outsmart the Germans. I also would be able to stay fed (ish) and have clean (ish) water.]]> 2019-04-03 14:07:43 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348079039 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348084153 1. I don't know why they did that because the are jewish and they knew that they wanted to kill all the jews.
2. I agree but I don't because he knew the place better than they did so he could hide but at the same time it was a HUGE risk because they could find his and kill him.
3. I would probably be way too scared to do that but I would still try and outsmart the germans.]]> 2019-04-03 14:16:12 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348084153 1045289 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348344073 1. I think the reason they stayed was because they didn't realize how vicious and brutal they were and how it could have been a trap.
2. I agree because they would probably have a better chance of dying if they left because they didn't know how the nazis would treat them because they didn't have shindler there to protect them even if they told them because the nazis would not believe them.
3.I would have done the same thing because it would be better than going to a concentration camp where soon a lot of people were executed.]]> 2019-04-04 02:23:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/348344073 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/350589991 1. I think that this happened because they may not have known how violent the Nazis were and they didn't want to leave everything that they had started in the city (job at the glass factory, their house).

2. I agree with this decision because if they had not stayed in Krakow they would have been dead. This is stated at the end of the book.
3.Yes, because the path they took and the decisions that they made kept them alive. If they had moved back to their old house, they would have died because the Nazis took over and shot everybody.]]> 2019-04-11 00:12:53 UTC https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/350589991 https://padlet.com/kirstyn_egan/3l7xgxnivp8k/wish/354695309 1. I think that this all happened to them because they didn't know how terrible the Nazis were and they didn't want to leave etc.
2. I do not agree with this decision because if they moved to the Soviet Union they would have survived and none of that stuff would have happened to them.
3. If I were them I would have moved to the Soviet Union because the living conditions at the time were better and they would have been safe.
