Description
Students will read about and analyze the Nuremberg Trial, sentencing, and executions of Nazi War Criminals by answering 9 questions and completing 2 comprehension tasks. Some questions are derived directly from the text, for others students have to infer and draw conclusions. This would be great for a sub and the answers are included where appropriate!
Sample questions include:
--Why was Goering happy that he received a death sentence rather than life in prison?
--Why was Ribbentrop upset that he got a death sentence?
--Why was it so important for Goering’s death to be officially recognized?
--Explain the meaning of this phrase: “passed behind a canvas curtain into the black pages of history.”
