Day 5, Friday - Testimonies of Survivors

Please go to the following link. Here you will find the testimonies of survivors of the atomic bomb incident in Hiroshima in 1945.

On A4 paper, make a title 'True Testimonies'. Read one of the survivor testimonies and answer the following questions.

1. Where was the survivor at the time of the incident?
2. What were the survivors' feelings like?
3. What was the scene like?

Imagine that you are one of the survivors of the atomic bomb incident. Write a one page testimony of your own. Do this on a new sheet of A4 paper, with the title 'My Testimony'. The person you are in this testimony can be very much like you, or, if you feel creative, very different. But please keep things realistic and as much like a real testimony as possible.

Your testimony should include the following:

• age
• name
• location
• description of what happens
• your own feelings

Attach a drawing or artwork that you have created yourself, that accompanies this testimony.
