The holocaust

 Hey bloggers

This term in Toroa hub for literacy we have been learning about the holocaust which is a big war where Germany invaded the Jewish countries and took them to concentration camps.

 

The reason the Germans took the Jewish away from their homes was so they could enslave them until they were useless then they shot them but sometimes they tricked them by saying we're taking you to a shower but really it was a gas chamber which is a way of killing humans and animals. Whenever the Nazis put Jewish in the gas chamber they left them there for 10-18 minutes which was enough time for them to drop dead.


During the Holocaust, there was a Jewish girl called Anne Frank who lasted 761 days hiding behind a bookcase/Secret annex with her family and a boy she liked. On August 4 1944 the Nazis went to investigate Anne Frank's house because there had been weird and illegal activity going on in there that's when one of them discovered that there was a hiding annex behind the bookcase and they all got discovered and taken to a concentration camp.


Anne Frank and her sister almost survived but 2 weeks before the Russians came to stop they died from typhus which is where your cold and haven't had any food.
