Oskar Schindler was a war profiteer and drinking buddy of many Nazis. Yet he saved the lives of more than a thousand Jewish concentration camp prisoners.
The TeachWithMovies.com Learning Guide to Schindler's List will help parents and teachers unlock lessons from the life of this war profiteer turned hero of the Holocaust. Why did Oskar Schindler turn into a hero when so many others did nothing? What role did his wife play in saving more than 1100 Jews from the death camps? What happened to him after the war? Did the people that he helped so much remember him and repay the favor?

To give you a sense of how our Learning Guides can be used by teachers as lesson plans and by parents to supplement school curriculum or for homeschooling, we have set out below one paragraph from the Learning Guide to Schindler's List.
Schindler had married his wife, Emilie, in 1928. He was tall, handsome and had an eye for women. He was not faithful in his marriage. The film omits the role that Emilie Schindler played in Schindler's conversion to antifascism and in helping to care for the Schindlerjuden. Emilie fully supported what her husband did for his workers. She cooked and cared for the sick. She earned praise and a reputation of her own. She has written a book about her life with Schindler, entitled Where Light and Shadow Meet.
The Learning Guide to Schindler's List also contains sections on the Benefits of the film, Possible Problems, Helpful Background, Discussion Questions, Links to the Internet, and Bridges to Reading. The Discussion Questions are divided into three categories: Subject Matter, Social-Emotional Learning, and Moral-Ethical Emphasis.
