Episode 10: ‘Finding Light in the Darkness’ with Podcasts

In this episode we hear a podcast from the 8th grade class of Amy Fry, ELA teacher at Highlands Middle school in the Ft. Thomas Independent School District in Kentucky. Amy Fry’s class created podcasts discussing works they read and watched on the subject of the Holocaust, such as “Refugee,” by Alan Gratz. The theme of this project was ‘Finding Light in the Darkness’ of the Holocaust. Listen to hear from student Adam Pawlak, who earned an honorable mention for his submission to the NPR Student Podcast Challenge, and was also featured on Democracy and Me.
