Welcome to the Janusz Korczak International School
The Janusz Korczak International School was founded by
the Ghetto Fighters' Museum and its Yad Layeled Children's Museum. Here you
will find information about the Ghetto Fighters' Museum's online programs that
deal with the Holocaust and the experiences of the Jewish children who lived
through it.
The central project of the school is an International Book Sharing Project for
students from Israel and other countries. The Book-Sharing Project has been
tailored for two age groups: middle school and high school. The middle school
project is entitled "Children of the World Learn about Children", and the high
school project is called "Confronting Evil in Our time" (in Hebrew "Ani Adam").
The International Book-Sharing Project is an international cooperative learning
about the Shoah (Holocaust) and its meaning for youth today. Israeli schools
and schools from other countries are paired together. Students in the partner
schools read the same book in their respective classrooms and then discuss
subjects related to the Holocaust via Internet communication. The Janusz
Korczak International School provides a forum for students and teachers
participating in this program to communicate their thoughts as they complete
the curriculum.
