My ideas about Powerpoint slides

April 11, 2007 at 6:08 pm (Uncategorized)

I’ll be doing slides related to the orphans and orphans’ life during the WWII. I’ve chose this topic for many reasons. The first one is – when I’ve heard the Lydia’s story I was completely shocked and impressed. The second one – my father is an orphan from his early childhood. So I’m very interested in this theme. Father told me about his life without parents, but now I’m also interested in orphans’ life during the WWII.
I want to make a strong emphasis on Lydia Nazarenko’s interview. I’ll try my best to show all her attitude t her story. She didn’t get a chance to take any photos related to the orphanage’s life and the WWII. So I decided to use photos from internet, which will show orphans’ life in 40’s and 50’s and I can use Lydia’s quotes. The most important quote which I’ll be following is: “We had to eat grass and fry rats. It was the only way to stay alive.”
I could also use some quotes from articles that I picked up in British Council.

    Seems that you are Nastya are on the right track about showcasing Lidia’s life and what she went through. It is a remarkable story of love and forgiveness on her part especially after all the brokenness in her family. I’m impressed as well by her story and I think the audience to History Matters will be as well. Just think, there are people like Lidia around us everywhere in Kyiv. It would be good if we could have an Oral History project where we captured the valuable quotes from their experiences surviving through the terrible years of WWII. Good job, keep up the good work!
