Kentucky Standards covering the Night: The Holocaust WebQuest

2.16 Students observe, analyze, and interpret human behaviors, social groupings, and
institutions to better understand people and the relationships among individuals and
among groups.

SS-H-CS-U-3
Students will understand that interactions among individuals and groups assume various forms
(e.g., compromise, cooperation, conflict, competition) and are influenced by culture.

SS-H-CS-S-3
Students will explain or give examples of how communications between groups can be influenced
by cultural differences; explain the reasons why conflict and competition (e.g., violence, difference
of opinion, stereotypes, prejudice, discrimination, genocide) developed as cultures emerged in
the modern world (1500 A.D. to present) and in the United States (Reconstruction to present)

2.19 Students recognize and understand the relationship between people and geography and
apply their knowledge in real-life situations.

SS-H-G-U-1
Students will understand that patterns emerge as humans move, settle and interact on Earth’s
surface, and can be identified by examining the location of physical and human characteristics,
how they are arranged, and why they are in particular locations. Economic, political, cultural and
social processes interact to shape patterns of human populations, interdependence, cooperation
and conflict.

SS-H-G-S-1
Students will use a variety of geographic tools (e.g., maps, globes, charts, graphs, photographs,
models, data bases, satellite images):
a) analyze the distribution of physical and human features on Earth's surface
b) interpret patterns and develop rationales for the location and distribution of Earth's human
features (e.g., available transportation, location of resources and markets, individual
preference, centralization versus dispersion)

SS-HS-4.3.1
Students will describe the movement and settlement patterns of people in various places
and analyze the causes of that movement and settlement (e.g., push factors such as
famines or military conflicts; pull factors such as climate or economic opportunity) and
the impacts in the modern world (1500 A.D. to present) and United States (Reconstruction
to present).

2.20 Students understand, analyze, and interpret historical events, conditions, trends, and
issues to develop historical perspective.

SS-H-HP-U-US1
Students will understand that U.S. History can be analyzed by examining significant eras (Reconstruction,
Industrialization, Progressive Movement, World War I, Great Depression and the New Deal, World War II,
Cold War, Contemporary United States) to develop chronological understanding and recognize cause-and-
effect relationships and multiple causation.

SS-H-HP-S-4
Students will research issues or interpret accounts of historical events in world history using primary and
secondary sources (e.g., biographies, films, periodicals, Internet resources, textbooks, artifacts):
