Virtual Field Trip

About the Virtual Field Trip

We all understand the importance of kindness, courage, and resilience—but how do these ideas translate into actions in everyday life? Take students on a multi-media journey that uses historical testimony, fictional portrayals from the major motion picture White Bird, and contemporary perspectives to highlight the power that kindness has to make our world a better place.

The White Bird Virtual Field Trip explores the ways that story can be used to change hearts and minds, highlighting amazing accounts of survival from the Holocaust and investigating the ways that those stories live on today.
