Pretend that you are one of the characters in the annex. You will create a diary with 3-5 diary entries informing others what happened to you upon your arrest from the annex by the Nazi police. You will base your entries on research. For example, if you find out through research that Mr. Van Dann was sent to Bergen Belsen concentration camp, you would include that in your diary entry as if you were him.
You will also include an epilogue. An epilogue is a concluding piece of writing that informs readers of what happened to characters at the end of a story. As all of the characters except for Mr. Frank died, an epilogue is needed to tell the reader of your diary what happened to you. If you are Mr. Frank, then much of your epilogue will be based upon the story and other research.
It is imperative that while your diary entries will be research based, you also remember to write in a humanistic way. You are the character from the annex, so the entries must include your personal thoughts and feelings of the events at the concentration camp. You may also have to fill some of your entries with fiction as none of us knows everything that occurred at those camps. The main elements that are required for this project are:
Research and Imagination. This project will culminate our study of the Informational text and the Literary text.
You should include pictures or drawings that help to illustrate the setting or the events. You must have at least 3 diary entries. They must be dated (day, month, date and year). The entries must be at least a page long. You may type them or write them in blue or black ink. Your sources should be listed inside of the cover at the very back of your diary. You must include sources!
You should be very creative when making your journal or diary with a cover, the diary entries, an epilogue and picture.
