Holocaust Education Kit -
Bring Holocaust history to life with Hands-on History’s Holocaust Education Kit. This interactive teaching collection features high-quality reproduction artifacts that help students explore Jewish life before, during, and after the Holocaust.
Students can see, touch, and handle meaningful objects that tell powerful stories of identity, persecution, resistance, and survival. Each artifact is paired with a student-friendly profile, original photos, and guiding question that connects individual stories to broader themes of human rights and resilience.
This comprehensive 25-item kit is organized into five key themes: Jewish Life Before the War, Rise of Antisemitism, Nazi Oppression & Resistance, Deportation & Camp Life, and Liberation & Aftermath, helping educators guide students through the historical progression of events.
