Transportation to Death Camps by Cheyenne Calloway https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250407325 Jews were sent to firmly guarded ghettos. After a couple weeks they were then transported to the Concentration Camps on a freight train.  The Jews were shoved into cars that were compacted with a lot of them.  There was very little food and water distributed over the 2-3 day journey to the camps.]]> 2018-04-10 17:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250407325 4. Holocaust of The Gypsies, By: Kris Love https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250408064 During the Holocaust of Gypsies, the Gypsies which included the Roma and Sinti people were a group singled out by the Nazi's for genocide. In 1935 the Nuremberg laws called them "alien strain' in Germany and then later on in 1938 to 1939 most Gypsies were sent to concentration camps to be imprisoned. Those that remained in 1940 were moved to Poland where special ghettos were made for them alongside with the Jews. As time went on The Vinchy Government in France rounded up the Gypsies, this resulted in the death of 0.25 to 0.5 million Gypsies.

After the Jews were transported to the camps,
the officials ripped families apart, and the genders were separated. Everyone was forced into having their hair cut off and given a striped uniform, removing all sense of personal identity and dignity. Literally, the prisoners were "dehumanized."

Daily Routines
Each day, the Jews in the concentration camps would have roll call in the morning, called the Appell.
Instructions for the day were given out, then the amount of (living and dead) prisoners were counted (and then usually recounted to waste time).
After a tiny breakfast, the Jews would then be directed to work.

The Auschwitz Gas Chambers by Mya Mrakich https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250409093 The gas chambers were giant rooms that could hold hundreds of people at once while the poisonous gas, Zyklon B, was pumped in through ceiling vents. The Jews that were chosen for an immediate death were marched to  chambers, required to undress, and leave all their belongings in special areas. First, they started with portable gas chambers that were made out of a working van. They would then pump exhaust from the van into the back, killing those inside. They then used permanent chambers, that were used as a mortuary before, with a more deadly gas. The chambers could hold more people for efficient killing.

Extermination of Jews by: Grace Kim https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250409172 In the concentration camps, according to "The Holocaust: A Learning Site for Students," it reads, "Those who had been selected to die were led to gas chambers...were driven naked into the 'showers'." Said in the text, the Nazis lock the Jews in the chamber; spreading gas known as "monoxide" in the area. In the end, the Nazi collected the Jews left products and gold from the their teeth.]]> 2018-04-10 17:47:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250409172 6. Death Marches by Cheyenne Calloway https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250409555 When Soviet troops drew closer to Auschwitz, the SS started mandatory evacuations that were called Death Marches.  Some of the people who were a part of these marches were too feeble to travel anywhere and were either abandoned or shot.  The people who survived grew weaker from no food, poor treatment, and the weather.  Lilly Appelbaum Malnik describes the march by saying, "It ended up being called the death march because the ravines and the gutters were all red from blood."]]> 2018-04-10 17:48:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250409555 Picture of Auschwitz By: Grace Kim https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250429656 Concentration camp in Oświęcim, Poland]]> 2018-04-10 18:21:39 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250429656 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250435335 2018-04-10 18:31:48 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250435335 Death Camp Video https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250436587 2018-04-10 18:34:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/250436587 Source for all: 99036425 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/251204242 The Nazi Death Camps By: World Almanac Library of the Holocaust

Knowing and Not Knowing By: Grace Kim 99036423 https://padlet.com/ssosa28/camps_p6/wish/251213670 Jews sent to the gas chambers had no time to react. A train full of prisoners were only sent to gas chambers available otherwise the owners of the concentration camps would have to deal with panicking Jews. The Nazi usually tricked the Jews to thinking they were being "resettled" or taking a shower.

Consequently, many Jews starved or died of malnourished and exhaustion, as the food was not suited for the heavy work that the prisoners were forced to do.

The Menu
Breakfast: "Imitation" Coffee or "tea."
Lunch: Watery soup, may come with a scrap of vegetable if prisoner are lucky.
Dinner: A Tiny Slice of Bread
