We've compiled a list of the nine books that we feel every teacher (and student) must read. Each of these books tackles an important event/issue in history. Each of these books is engaging, well-written, and powerful.

When teachers flip the calendar to August, the countdown is on. Inevitably, we begin planning for the next school year. One of the beautiful things about being a teacher is the opportunity for new beginnings.

I am always reflecting on how I can improve a lesson, unit or activity and the [Facing History](https://www.facinghistory.org/) website is a go-to resource for me. Here are my five recommended resources from the Facing History website to inspire your classroom practice this year:

This week, our office director [Leora](https://www.facinghistory.org/get-to-know-us/stories/facing-history-canada-interview-toronto-director-leora-schaefer), along with several other [Facing History](https://www.facinghistory.org/) staff and board members, are traveling in Poland as part of a learning trip. Over the course of nine days, they are exploring questions about history, memory, and legacy that are at the core of our work. With the help of Polish and Jewish scholars, witnesses to history, community activists, politicians and journalists, as well as organizations that have worked with Facing History throughout the past 25 years, they will be challenged to think in new ways as we confront the past and struggle with questions about the present and future. On Monday, Leora and the group visited the [Treblinka](http://www.muzeumsiedlce.art.pl/pl/site/490/493/494/muzeum.walki.i.meczenstwa.w.treblince.html)extermination camp. Read her thoughts here:

# [Where was God during the Shoah? Jewish students seek answers in Art and Tradition](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/where-was-god-during-the-shoah-jewish-students-seek-answers-in-art-and-tradition/)

One of my most powerful childhood memories is seeing "The Ten Commandments" in the original "Cinemascope" at the now demolished Glendale Cinema on Avenue Road. I never forgot the grandeur of the huge screen especially in scene where Moses (Charlton Heston) epically raised his arms with the Rod of God aloft, and the sea crashed down upon the pursuing Egyptians while Pharaoh (Yul Brynner) gasped in awe and said: "The Lord is God." So much for nostalgia. I wonder what Moses would have said watching a synagogues of Germany burn down on Kristallnacht when firefighters stood idle and crowds gathered to gawk? He might well have asked, as do my students, "where was God"?

In this interview, we asked **Rob Simon,** Assistant Professor of Multiliteracies in Education at OISE/University of Toronto (Dept of Curriculum, Teaching and Learning), to tell us more about the **Teaching to Learn Project** so we could better understand how and why collaborative (teacher-adolescent) curriculum planning worked, why he chose Elie Wiesel's *Night* as the study text, and where he got the idea to ask project participants to paint on the pages of the text as a form of reading response.

The images below are the culmination of those responses, which were mounted in an exhibition titled **After Night**.
