The article presents a project aimed at developing suitable methods for Holocaust Education already in the German primary school. Based on Ido Abram’s three-step-program as well as Wolfgang Klafki’s critical didactics, the project has developed a biographical approach to create possibilities for identification among the students. This is tested in a 3rd grade class and is thereafter evaluated.
