I would have asked why she keeps saying that she sees fire and ask what it means. ]]> 2021-12-06 17:18:44 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1931689507 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1931691326 The train stopped at Birkenau]]> 2021-12-06 17:19:27 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1931691326 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1933387177 A quote that stands out to me is "But I wanted to come back to warn you. Only no one is listening to me..." (pg. 7). The Jews received many warnings, but choose to ignore them and continued on their journey. ]]> 2021-12-07 12:46:18 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1933387177 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1933388922 At the beginning of chapter one, Moishe the Beadle was okay and cool but towards the end he was becoming sad ]]> 2021-12-07 12:47:11 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1933388922 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951497722 The SS men order them into groups. Elie manages to stay with his father. A veteran prisoner tells him to say that he is eighteen, not fifteen, and his father forty, not fifty. This is because if they didn't lie about their age they would have been burned in the chimney. ]]> 2021-12-16 11:29:52 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951497722 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951505593 An SS officer named Dr. Mengele inspects them, asking some of them questions as he's pointing in directions telling them where to go. Elie lies and says he's eighteen Dr. Mengele points to the left, and does the same for his father. A prisoner tells them they are headed for the crematorium. I wonder how many Jews did this so that you wouldn't be burned. How many lives has that prisoner saved from telling them to lie?]]> 2021-12-16 11:35:48 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951505593 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951511564 As they step out of the train cars, leaving the last of their valuables behind, they are surrounded by the SS with weapons. Men separated from the women. Elie watches his sister and his mother for the last time. I wonder if they would ever see each other again. Why would they separate families? Would they ever get to go back to their carefree lives happy, and together? ]]> 2021-12-16 11:39:56 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951511564 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951519942 The camp of Buna looks deserted when they arrive. The German in charge of Elie's tent takes a special interest in the welfare of children, although his interest may not be so wholesome. Elie later learns that many boys were sexually abused. The sexually abused men is an example of the inhumane treatment of the Jewish prisoners by those who had power over them. ]]> 2021-12-16 11:45:47 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951519942 karleewayt https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951579801 The person in charge of Elie's tent tried to bribe him for his shoes. He would give Elie bread and a good work assignment and keep him with his father. Elie wouldn't give up his shoes. The person wanted his shoes because they were nice. ]]> 2021-12-16 12:26:31 UTC https://padlet.com/karleewayt/v7d8hez2mi3tyy1v/wish/1951579801
