At this point, all of our schools have a student population that has been affected by a catastrophic event. Students want to be understanding and compassionate towards their fellow students. Yet, there is little taught about the human side of global events. The emotional position of someone who has survived death and destruction is all but unknown to many students.
I want my students to explore the journey presented in this trilogy, and understand the struggle people have after surviving a catastrophic event; when the world wants to move on, but the individual cannot. How does one create a life worth living while carrying a heavy emotional burden? This particular trilogy follows the Elie Wiesel character through three significant emotional journeys. Journeys where the soul is examined in-depth.
