The Holocaust 3 Phases

1st Phase: Identification 1933-1939 Identification of victims Nuremberg Laws

2nd Phase: Isolation 1939-1941 Creation of Ghettos Isolation and imprisonment

Think, Pair, Share Person A: Describe the conditions of the Warsaw Ghetto. Person B: Why did the Nazis create the ghettos? What was their purpose? White Board: What part of ghetto life seemed the worst to you?

3rd Phase: Final Solution 1941-1945 Mobile Killing Squads Forced Labor Camps Death Camps

Hitler’s “Final Solution” In the course of the final solution the Jews are to be sent in a suitable manner and under appropriate direction to do labor in the east. Separated by sexes, those Jews able to work will be led in large labor columns into these areas while building roads. In the process, large numbers will undoubtedly drop away through natural attrition. The final remainder that conceivably will still be around and that undoubtedly constitutes the sturdiest segment will have to be dealt with accordingly as it represents a natural selection which, when left at liberty, has to be seen as a germ cell of new Jewish development.
