The Holodomor: Impact and Legacy
This 5-station rotation packet for 10th graders explores the Holodomor famine's impact on Ukraine and its significance for Ukrainian-Canadian identity. It encourages collaboration through task cards which include primary sources to build analytical and critical thinking skills.
“Here is the curriculum expectation: analyze the impact of the Holodomor famine on the people of Ukraine and assess the significance of the Holodomor for the development of identities, citizenship, and/or heritage of the Ukrainian community in Canada. I need to create a lesson that is engaging. It should encourage opportunities for collaboration and the use of technology. A station rotation would be good as well, perhaps with task cards.”
Teacher Guide & Tips
- This packet is designed for a 90-minute block, suitable for whole-class or small-group instruction.

- Scaffold for struggling readers: Provide sentence starters for analysis tasks and pre-highlight key vocabulary.
- Extension for advanced students: Have students research and present on the ongoing international recognition of the Holodomor as genocide.
- Estimated time: 90 minutes.
