Politcal Rally To Be Held!

Former students will recall this role playing activity in which we have students become either "voters" or political party representatives. The purpose of this activity is for students to see the competing ideologies and feelings among a cross-section of German society toward the end of the Weimar Republic. During the rally, students will analyze the wants and needs of their characters, and weigh their political options (based upon political parties running for election).  The goal of this activity is to entice the students to understand how the National-Socialists could have come to power.

This week, our current students will be preparing for the political rally. I would like to hear from former students about this experience, and what they thought of the result, or what the experience of role playing was like for them. 

Looking forward to hearing from you!
