Schindler’s List

Schindler’s List

To me a hero dosent have to save someone or something to really be a hero. Just trying to help someone or something is heroic. To risk your life to save or help another one is heroic. " To say yes is to follow the mass to do what is commonly expected. To say no is to deny the crowd, to set apart, to reaffirm yourself."  I really like this quote because it shows that you dont have to save some one to be a hero.

I feel that heroes do not necessarily possess certain qualities but are defined by their actions. You can be a selfish person and see a car crush and still call 911 or get some one out of the car. You could also be a mean person and save someone from a fire. You always put yourself first and see someone that needs help and still help them. This means that a hero dosent need to have certain qualities.

There were not so many heros during the holocaust but there was some people that did save many people.   

Schindler helped the Jews by giving them a job in his big company. He was a hero because he told the nazi that he needs them to build something so they did not take them to concentration camps. I am very happy that there where people that did try to help the poor jews.   

  

Victory

In the Holocaust their were many survivors and most of them have memories. Sonia Weitz wrote her memories in poems. She wrote poems about every thing, when she went to concentration camps, when they took her mom, when she got saved and so many more but my favorite one is "Victory". Victory is about when her sister,dad,brother in law and her got taken to a concentration camp and separated in to boys and girls, but one day she snuck in to see her dad while a young boy was playing the harmonica and her dad said to her " little one, let us dance we may not have another chance."

This poem dosent really reflect in my life but what I like most is that it makes you feel the feeling that she went through, the sadness and happiness she felt. I can't even imagen going through what she went through, losing her mom and dad to the Holocaust then geting Typhus all by her self, I dont know what I would have done.

1918-1933

There were many conditions that allowed the Nazi Party to take control in Germany. After losing World War I Germany had to pay reparations which were imposed upon them by the Treaty of Versailles, to all the countries that fought against them. This meant that had to pay for all the damages that they had done during the great war. This was very difficult for Germany and took most their money. Secondly, hyperinflation and the economy was in a crisis in germany not only due to the money they had to pay for war damages but also because the world was in the middle of an economic crisis called the depression. Money became worthless which even put a greater strain on Germany. So not only was the Germany's government in trouble but so were the people because they had no jobs. The German citizens could not have any jobs because they could not aford to pay them. One day Adolf Hitler came with a solution to fix every thing. After a few years Hitler became in charge. Hitler waited for the right time and that is how Hitler got control.

THE END IS NEAR!!!

Wow the end is near. Not the end of the world but the end of the school year is near. In 6th grade I have done many pices of work but there is one that I am the most proud of, My Ancient India geography PowerPoint. I think it shows how much I have grown through out the year in technology, research and spelling. I like this work picse because it is color full and has good information.

My greatest challenge in 6th grade were lit C. Lit C was because I don’t like to read books that I am assigned to read and I especially don’t like to right about that book so that made me less interested in the assiment and that made it boring and challenging. Another challenging assiment was the dairy and that was challenging because you had to have a word limit and sometimes you have to make your person have a b-day, death and a wedding in the same day.

I have grown a lot in my righting. I have improved in making my righting longer and more Interesting. During my growth I have learned to feel what I am righting and think before I right it. Now my righting makes more sens and is more interesting and fun to read.

My school Behavior is satisfactory because sometimes I listen but sometimes I day dream and get distracted. My participation is also satisfactory because sometimes in grupe work I do talk to them and I ask them things but sometimes I gust do my part and dont do anything els. I am supper organized my locker is neat my binder is neat and I know where every thing is. In all my work I put lots of effort so I would say I all ways do what I am told and sometimes more.

In grade 7 I plan to be better at spelling. I want to get at least 1 word rong in my righting and type faster than I do now. Another goal I want to do in grade 7 is to be more foucuse and listen more to the teacher and that way I will understand more.

There is one thing I want my teachers to know next year and that is that I am gistalt and I learn best with pictures or a phisical explenation.

My fave hum project is the call it curege TIC-TAK- TOW project. I like it because it had many different projects and they were fun projects.

The only thing I wish we spent more time on is ansient India, Greek, Rome and China. I wish we had more time to study out country and put it all together.

One edvice for the up coming sixth graders is to do there Lit C as it is on the scedual.
