Today we completed a historical character study based on Adolph Eichmann. Adolph was a ranking official in Germany under Adolf Hitler, and was responsible for dealing with the ‘Jewish problem.’ Students were asked to review the biographies and information available on Eichmann in class, and then take the events, source documents and decisions Eichmann made to create a character sketch of what type of personality he may have had. After the research was complete, we had a discussion about Eichmann, giving us some context of one of the key individuals of the Holocaust.
