4th grade teachers
I teach 4th grade special ed, all behavior issues.
I mentioned Adolf Hitler in a biography discussion today as an example that they may see biographies about people who didn't make a positive impact in history.
Most never heard of him, or the holocaust.
I was wondering if this is common with most non-Jewish 9 and 10 yr olds in gen Ed classes? I knew a lot about it at that age but I had family who were affected by it and went to yeshiva....
