    • HMD 2012 Special Educational Needs - Sir Ludwig Guttmann

      The purpose of this resource is to give you the opportunity to teach your students about the link between the Paralympic games and the Holocaust. It is a chance to teach your students about making positive life choices – no matter how great the darkness of the past we can all strive, like Dr Guttmann, for a better future.

      The lesson focuses on the life story of Paralympic founder Dr Guttmann and you may want to link it to work focused on the Paralympics. Suggestions for such work are given below.

      You may choose to cue students into this lesson by lighting a candle.

    • HMD 2012 Special Educational Needs - Introduction

      This year’s resources for special settings have been conceived as three interlocking parts. Schools are free to pick and choose from these as they wish. You may want different classes within schools to do different things, or for one class to do it all, or for just a few students to do one thing. It is completely flexible and entirely up to you.

    • HMD 2012 Special Educational Needs - First They Came

      This poem is presented as a sequence of meditative movements and sensory experiences enabling students to experience it in a variety of ways. The PowerPoint will lead you through how to deliver these experiences. The movement starts with a line of students at one side of a room, who gradually retreat by moving backwards at the turn of each page, symbolising the way people retreat from things that frighten them.
