1. We chose the topic of the resistance during the Holocaust, because we kn ew about it but we wanted to research it so that we could learn more about it. 2. We conducted our research, by looking at primary and secondary sources o f the Holocaust and we took notes about what we thought would be virtuous notes about the uprisings of the Holocaust. 3. Chance and I chose to do a website because we like to use computers and the idea of creating a website sounded like a very good idea. 4. The Resistance of the Holocaust relates to NHD, because the Holocaust to ok place from 1933-1945. The Holocaust is important to history, because it chang ed our perspectives on Hitler and the Germans. We thought that Hitler was doing the right thing, but we realized that we didnt want a leader like him. This mightv e impacted how we wanted to choose who was in control of our nation.
