        The USHMM offers the following suggestion for age-appropriateness.
        "Students in grades 7 and above demonstrate an ability to empathize with
        individual eyewitness accounts and to understand the complexities of this history,
        including the scope and scale of the events. While elementary students are able
        to empathize with the individual survivor accounts, they often have difficulty placing
        these personal stories in a larger context."

        For examples of lesson plans appropriate for Elemetary, Middle and High Schools
       see the Teachers Guide to the Holocaust Students Activities Page.
