Discovery Kits

Discovery kits are designed to put primary documents and artefacts into the hands of students. Students are encouraged to examine, describe and analyze the artefacts as a way to investigate issues of discrimination, segregation, hiding, resistance, as well as the aftermath of war and immigration. Learning is supported by Student Information Cards and Teacher’s Guides.

Classroom Book Sets

Classroom book sets are chosen to engage young adult readers while offering insight into the authors’ experiences of the Holocaust. They are commonly taught as part of the British Columbia curriculum and are appropriate for middle and high school students.

Classroom book sets are available for a four-week loan period. Each set contains 30 copies of the book, a related video and a binder of additional resources and readings. Pick-up and delivery or courier costs are the responsibility of the teacher.
