Looking for meaningful ways to teach students about the Holodomor and its place in history? The Critical Thinking Consortium (TC²), in collaboration with the Holodomor Research and Education Consortium (HREC), has developed a collection of free inquiry-based educational resources for Grades 6–12.
The resources encourage students to investigate the Holodomor through investigations into historical evidence and primary sources. With TC²’s resources students are challenged to explore the causes and consequences of the Holodomor, examine the experiences of those affected and consider broader questions surrounding genocide, human rights, historical memory and the denial of historical atrocities.
The collection includes three lessons for Grades 6–9 and seven lessons for Grades 10–12 which include student activity sheets, primary source documents, image collections and assessment materials. Teachers can use the lessons as a complete unit or select individual activities and resources to complement their existing lessons.
These resources offer an excellent opportunity to bring inquiry-based learning and historical thinking into the classroom while helping students understand an important chapter of Ukrainian and world history.
