113. Lesson Plan - Holocaust The author uses fictitious characters to describe real life events of World War II and the Title of lesson Carousel Brainstorming for Number the Stars. http://teacherlink.ed.usu.edu/tlresources/units/byrnes-literature/simpson.html

1. Book Title: Number the Stars 2. Author: Lois Lowry 3. Publisher and Date: Houghton and Mifflin Co. 1989 4. Curriculum Developer: Jennifer Simpson Summary: Number the Stars is a story about Annemarie Johansen, a ten year old girl living in Denmark in 1943. Annemarie has a Jewish friend named Ellen Rosen. The story uses these and other fictitious characters to explain the real life events and struggles of life in Denmark during the German occupation. Annemarie deals daily with the strict soldiers and watches as Jewish businesses start to close and Denmark loses more and more control and power. As German soldiers begin to gather the Jews to "relocate" them, the Johansen family secretly fights to help keep their Jewish friends, the Rosen's safe. Annemarie and her family go through life threatening ordeals to help the Rosen family and other people escape from Denmark to Sweden. The story continues until Denmark is finally freed and Annemarie, along with all Danes, can finally welcome her Jewish friends home. Social Studies Relevance: This book contains great relevance to many social studies topics. It teaches a great deal of history. The author uses fictitious characters to describe real life events of World War II and the Holocaust. The book also deals with geography and can be used as a wonderful springboard for understanding the geographical placement of the Western European countries and their relevance to the war. Students may explore anthropology as the students learn about the Danish culture and the Jewish Culture and traditions. Economics is also discussed as the book includes the facts about the business, food, and other various supplies that are lost or destroyed because of the German occupation. There is a great deal of political science addressed in the book. The issues of human behavior, forming organizations, forms of government, and many more are all addressed through this wonderful book.
