One Gwinnett County school teacher felt the wrath of parents when they decided to give out a nazi homework assignment.  In the assignment, sixth-graders were asked to draw a Nazi mascot.

AJC reports that the assignment was given Monday at Shiloh Middle School. Sloan Roach, a school district spokeswoman, says that a parent contacted Gwinnett school officials to raise concerns about the exercise. 

“The year is 1935 and you have been tasked with creating a mascot to represent the Nazi party at its political rallies,” the assignment read. “Think about all of the information you have learned about Hitler and the Nazi party. You will create a COLORFUL illustration of the mascot. Give the mascot a NAME. You will also write an explanation as to why the mascot was chosen to represent the Nazi party.”

While the teacher has been left unidentified, they were apparently teaching a social studies class in which they were studying, the rise of Nazism and its use of propaganda and events that led to the Holocaust.

The assignment used was not approved curriculum, and the teacher has been addressed on the matter. 

I mean, you couldn't have possibly thought drawing nazis would go over well with parents. All in all, it doesn't look like much will come of the situation, but next time you think about having your students draw Nazis, just don't.
