The Paper Clip
For Remembrance Day, our class did a multimedia presentation about how the paper clip became a symbol for resistance against Hitler in Norway. A class in Whitwell, Tennessee did a research project about it and decided to collect 6 million paper clips, one for each of the Jews killed in WWII. Hear all about the project.
