Professional Responsibility
“On the two school days of your assigned teachers’ convention, you have a legal and professional responsibility to attend convention. If you are not able to make it safely to your assigned convention, however, your collective agreement may include impassable roads or inclement weather clauses that you can access. If your collective agreement does not include language specific to road conditions or weather, you may make use of the personal leave clauses of your agreement in most cases. Please be aware that using any of these types of leave may require you to pay substitute costs, forego a portion of your salary and benefits, or report to your school or another work location in your district. Refer to your collective agreement for more information. Should you require any additional information or if you need assistance interpreting your collective agreement, please contact Teacher Employment Services at 1-800-232-7208 or 780-447-9400.”

In this session participants will work through exploring the differences between Perpetrators, Collaborators, Bystanders, and Rescuers in relation to the Holocaust, by sifting through a number of identity and situational cards. From there, they will be introduced to 3 year old Barney Greenman. Participants will then utilize the same cards to identify who was responsible for Barney’s death. This activity is Monday morning ready for participants and is an incredibly effective way to have students engage with the acts of the Nazi regime through the lens of just one child.
