Students may choose between two options: writing and illustrating a short multi-panel graphic narrative, modeled on Miriam Libicki\u2019s process, or creating a collage, painting, or graphic diagram which expresses an example of agency and resistance. They may choose from several different mediums, depending on their artistic confidence and individual preferences: they may complete their projects by hand, or by using a graphic design program or other kind of computer software.\r\n\r\nFirst, students should choose their individual, whether an individual previously selected by the teacher in <a href=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/butiliveresource\/chapter\/jewish-youth-agency\/\">Jewish Youth: Agency and Resistance<\/a>, or another they have been approved to research. Then, they should identify how best to illustrate that individual\u2019s agency\u2014through a focus on story, character, or environment. Then they must identify and incorporate five devices and techniques studied in <a href=\"https:\/\/pressbooks.bccampus.ca\/butiliveresource\/chapter\/graphic-literary-techniques\/\">Graphic and Literary Techniques <\/a>(or another number of techniques, as decided by the teacher). If they choose not to create a narrative representation, they are free to illustrate their knowledge of techniques by using other graphic approaches that do not require plot, that are non-diegetic.\r\n\r\nThe teacher may choose to assign a short written description in which the student must explain the reasoning behind their techniques and devices, and their strategy for representing the agency of the individual they have chosen.\r\n\r\nThis project is designed to allow students to independently refine their graphic narrative techniques from a variety of different vantage points, gradually allowing them to build confidence in making their own design decisions. This structure also allows for significant differentiation in the classroom, letting learners practice perspective and historical empathy using their individual learning strengths. This project could also be assigned in other subjects, including language arts or English.\r\n<h2>Extension<\/h2>\r\nDepending on the make-up of the class and\/or the preferences of the students, the project could be combined with a fair, gallery walk, or series of individual or group presentations, in which students share the highlights of their learning journeys.\r\n<p class=\"import-Normal\"><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>","rendered":"<p>This lesson plan aims to represent, in narrative or visual form, the agency and resistance of a Jewish individual during the Holocaust, using graphic techniques and literary devices identified in Miriam Libicki\u2019s graphic narrative.This lesson completes Unit 4 <span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">by bringing together the <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">teachings<\/span> <span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">of the previous two lessons, requiring students to complete a project that combines a) an aspect of the graphic <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">narrative<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> (story, character, or environment)<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">;<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> b) techniques and devices used in graphic narratives<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">;<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> and c) research on an individual to demonstrate historical thinking competencies. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">Students will <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">draw on<\/span> <span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">their learning from the first two lessons to demonstrate their competenc<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">ies<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> in three areas: <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">specific<\/span> <span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">reference to<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> evidence<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">;<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> understanding of significance<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">;<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\"> and <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">capacity to empathize with, and understand, different <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">perspective<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">s<\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">. <\/span><span lang=\"en-US\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">Researching a Holocaust victim through relevant primary source evidence will help a student understand a victim\u2019s unique perspective and experience.
