2. Mother (age: late 30's early 40's)

3. Brother (16 years old)

4. Sister  (14 years old)

As a group you will decide on a surname.  Each group member can create their 
own individual first name.  Try to pick names of the country you come from.  
As a group you may have to do some research to find names that work.  Here 
is a site that has ethnic names:

Your goal is to trace your past. You will trace the events of your life from 
before Nazi occupation  through the liberation of the concentration camp 
where you were held. 

After you have completed your research, your group will create a 
scrapbook/memory book of your lives which will include one scrapbook page 
for each :

1. Life before Nazi occupation

2. Life in the concentration camp

3. Life after liberation
