Friday, May 11

Objective: SWBAT compare a play to the film version of the play.

Do-Now: FREE WRITE (Write 5-7 sentences about anything you want)

Today: 1) Finish watching "Anne Frank"

2) Watch "Who Betrayed Anna Frank"

3) Diary Entry Project: Pretend that you were forced to go into hiding today. You would not be allowed to tell your friends/family where you were or have any contact with the outside world (no cellphones, internet, etc.) Write a series of five diary entries in which you describe what it feels like to be cut off from the outside world. You may choose to talk about why you are hiding, who is hiding with you, what you brought with you to hide, who/what you left behind on the outside, what you do to occupy your time while in hiding, etc.  Your entries may end with you leaving hiding or being discovered.  Each entry should be a minimum of TEN complete sentences (a total of at least FIFTY sentences.)  This project is worth 50 points and will be graded on completeness and creativity.  FIVE points will be deducted for each day the project is turned in late. 
DUE DATE = MONDAY, MAY 21

Exit Slip: Did you enjoy the film version of "Anne Frank?"  Why or why not?  How does it compare to the play version we read in class?  Do you feel the play included all of the most important parts, or were some of them left out?  Explain.

Homework: Your diary project is Due Monday, May 21.  This assignment will be your ONLY homework for the next week, therefore, you may choose to complete one entry a night for the next FIVE nights instead of waiting until the last minute.
