"Final Solution"

Answer the following questions in your note packet completely and throughly:





The “Final Solution” describes Hitler’s master plan to eliminate all of the Jews from Germany. This process took place over several steps. 

One of the first steps was to place Jews and other “non-Aryans” into ghettos. How would this movement help further his plan?

Nazis began killing off entire populations of Jewish people. Why do you think these acts were tolerated? Why didn’t anyone speak up?

Many Jews were then forced into concentration and death camps. See the sites below to learn more about these horrific places.
