This curriculum outline, designed for use in U.S. history, world history, or English courses, presents information about Adolf Hitler and the Holocaust. Part 1 provides a rationale for teaching about this subject, while part 2 presents an outline of historical information from 1887 to 1934 concerning Hitler's life and the rise of the Nazi Party. Part 3 outlines the Holocaust in terms of: (1) the roots of European anti-Semitism; (2) the persecution of Jews from 1933-1938 through use of the established legal system; (3) the intensification of Jewish persecution from 1938 to 1940 by legal and extra-legal means; and (4) the physical destruction of European Jews from 1941 to 1945. Part 4 contains a 20-item partially annotated bibliography. (JHP)
