4. Do you take where you live for granted? At the age of thirteen, Anne Frank was forced out of her home by the Nazis. Anne Frank's most memorable years were spent living above an office in a secret annex. For many months, Anne Frank could not talk, use running water, turn on lights, wear shoes, or go outside.

Task Three: Personal Experience Diary At the time of your choosing within the next week, you will live for an hour and a half as Anne Frank did in the annex. You will have to complete this task at home. Here are your instructions: 1.) Take off your shoes, remove all portable electronics from your room (this is VERY important), inform your family not to interrupt for any reason and explain why, go to your room, close the windows and doors, and turn off all of the lights except for one flashlight or candle. 2.) During the time in your room, you can not talk, eat, use running water, watch TV, text, play videogames, listen to music (even with headphones), walk, or do anything that makes excessive noise such as flushing the toilet. Record your thoughts, reactions, and activities you experience by writing your own diary reflection.

The pictures, along with her diary, were her most precious belongings when everything else seemed to disappear. “A picture is worth a thousand words." Task Five: Putting it all Together - Scrapbook Your last assignment is to create a scrapbook that includes all the elements of the four tasks: the timeline, the interview, the Venn-Diagram, the diary entry, and the outline.
