Holocaust Literature students at Plainwell High School learned about many survivor stories thanks to a traveling trunk borrowed from the Illinois Holocaust Museum. The students read survivor stories and examined “artefact” kits that include replicas of many objects from the Museum’s collection. This Survivor-focused trunk helps students understand each individual story and how the Jewish people sought to maintain their dignity and previous way of life throughout the Holocaust.
